Simple venting configurations.
For vent configurations requiring more than one 45° and one 90° elbow, the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: H
< 3V
T
T
Formula 2: H
+ V
< 40 feet (12.2m)

Example:
V
= 1 FT (0.3m)
1
V
= 1.5 FT (0.5m)
2
V
= V
+ V
= 1 FT (0.3m)+ 1.5 FT (0.5m)= 2.5 FT (0.8m)

H

= 3FT (0.9m) x 2.5FT(0.8m) = 7.5FT (2.3m)
T
13.4 FT (4.1m) > 7.5 FT (2.3m)
Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is unacceptable.
Formula 2:
H
+ V
< 40 FT (12.2m)
T
T
15.9FT (4.8m) < 40FT (12.2m)
Since only formula 2 is met, this vent configuration in unacceptable and a new fireplace location or vent
configuration will need to be established to satisfy both formulas.
Example:
V
= 1.5 FT (0.5m)
1
V
= 8 FT (2.4m)
2
V
= V
+ V
= 1.5 FT (0.5m) + 8 FT (2.4m) = 9.5 FT (2.9m)
