Top Vent - Vertical Termination
No Elbows
V = 3 ft Min. (1m), 50 ft. Max. (15.2 m)

V
Figure 7.7 Vertical Vent Maximum
Exhaust restrictors are recommended for these vertically
terminated products which have excessive draft. Exhaust
restrictors will compensate for high draft, and restore vi-
sual fl ame height. If the vent confi guration has a total

vertical of 14-50 ft (4.5 m -15.24 m), an exhaust restrictor
may be needed. The exhaust restrictor can be located in
the appliance manual bag.
