when the venting passes through a combustible wall.
• A support box or ceiling firestop is required when the

Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects
when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical
aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see Figure 5.1).
Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow. On
45º runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 (216 mm)
inches horizontal run and 8-1/2 (216 mm) inches vertical run.
A length of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows
(see Figure 5.1).
