Calculate Vent System Length
The recommended vent system is 6" (15.2 cm) round vent with a
maximum length of 26 ft (8 m). For the best performance, use no
more than three 90 ° elbows.
To calculate the length of the system, add the equivalent feet
(meters) for each of the vent pieces used in the system.

Non-Vented (recirculating) Installations Through the Soffit/
