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
T
Example:
V
= 2 FT

V
= 1 FT
2
V
= 1.5 FT

V
= V
+ V
+ V
= 2 + 1 + 1.5 = 4.5 FT

H
= .03 (four 90° elbows - 90°)

Formula 1:
Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is unacceptable.
Formula 2:
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.
