Simple venting configurations.
For vent configurations requiring more than two 90° elbows (top exit) or one 90° elbow (rear exit), the following
formulas apply:
Formula 1: H
< 3 V
T

Formula 2: H
+ V
< 40 feet (12.2m)

Example:

16.1FT (4.9m) < 13.5 FT (4.1m)
Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is unacceptable.
Formula 2:

T
T
16.1FT (4.9m) < 13.5 (4.1m)
Since only formula 2 is met, this vent configuration is unacceptable and a new fireplace location or vent configuration will
need to be established to satisfy both formulas.

V
= 5 FT (1.5m)
