NOTE: Maximum Equivalent Vent Length (MEVL) does NOT include elbows or terminations. Use Table 14 - Deductions from
Maximum Equivalent Vent Length to determine allowable vent length for each application.

Venting System Length Calculations
The maximum length for each vent pipe (inlet or exhaust) equals the Maximum Equivalent Vent Length (MEVL) from Table 13 or Table 15
minus the number of elbows multiplied by the deduction for each elbow in Table 14.
Standard vent terminations and concentric vent terminations count for zero deductions.
Example
A direct- -vent 60,000 Btuh furnace installed at 2100 ft. (640 M ) with 2- -in. (51 mm) vent piping. Venting system includes, FOR EACH
PIPE, (3) 90_ long radius elbows, (2) 45_ long radius elbows and a concentric vent kit.
