Lennox ELITE Series Installation Instructions Manual page 18

16 - Vent connectors serving Category I appliances shall
not be connected to any portion of mechanical draft
systems operating under positive pressure such as
Category III or IV venting systems.
17 - If vent connectors are combined prior to entering
the common vent, the maximum common vent
capacity listed in the common venting tables must
be reduced by 10%, the equivalent of one 90° elbow
(0.90 x maximum common vent capacity).
18 - The common vent diameter must always be at least
as large as the largest vent connector diameter.
19 - In no case, shall the vent connector be sized more
than two consecutive table size diameters over the
size of the draft hood outlet or flue collar outlet.

NOTE - Single appliance venting configurations with zero lateral lengths are assumed to have no elbows in the vent system. For
all other vent configurations, the vent system is assumed to have two 90° elbows. For each additional 90° elbow or equivalent (for
example two 45° elbows equal one 90° elbow) beyond two, the maximum capacity listed in the venting table should be reduced by
10 percent (0.90 x maximum listed capacity).

20 - Do not install a manual damper, barometric draft
regulator or flue restrictor between the furnace and
the chimney.
21 - When connecting this appliance to an existing
dedicated or common venting system, you must
inspect the venting system's general condition
and look for signs of corrosion. The existing vent
pipe size must conform to these instructions and
the provided venting tables. If the existing venting
system does not meet these requirements, it must
be resized.
