ity must be reduced by 20% (0.80 X
maximum vent capacity).
b) The minimum capacity (FAN MIN.) shall
be determined by referring to the corre-
sponding single appliance table (tables 1
& 2). In this case, for each appliance the
entire vent connector and common vent
from the appliance to the vent termina-
tion would be treated as a single appli-
ance vent, as if the other appliances
were not present.
5. If vent connectors are combined prior to
entering the common vent, the maximum
common vent capacity listed in the com-
mon vent tables must be reduced by 10%,
the equivalent of one (1) 90
figure 7. The horizontal length of the com-
mon vent connector or manifold (L) should
not exceed 1 1/2 feet (18 inches) for each
inch of common vent diameter.
6. If the common vent is offset as shown in
figure 8, the maximum common vent ca-
pacity listed in the common venting tables
should be reduced by 20%, the equivalent
of two (2) 90° elbows. The horizontal
length of the offset shall not exceed 1 1/2
feet for each inch of common vent diame-
ter.
7. The common vent diameter must always be
at least as large as the largest vent connec-
tor diameter. All interconnection fittings
must also be the same size as the com-
mon vent.
8. Type B gas vents shall terminate above the
roof surface with a listed cap or listed roof
assembly according to their respective list-
ing and the vent manufacture's instructions.
