Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)
The longer the length of your exhaust flue, the more restriction there is in the system. Therefore, a larger diameter pipe
should be used. As such, prior to purchasing and installing your unit, you should carefully plan your installation and
calculate the equivalent vent length (EVL) of your planned installation. Use the following to calculate your EVL:
 90º Elbow or Tee
 45º Elbow
 Horizontal Pipe
 Vertical Pipe
If your EVL is less than 15' you may use 3" diameter pipe. However, if your EVL is 15' or greater you must use 4"
diameter pipe. If your exhaust configuration has three elbows, or if you have a corner installation going out a sidewall,
4" diameter pipe should be used regardless of your EVL calculation.
