For vent configurations requiring more than zero 90° elbow
(top exit) or one 90° elbow (rear exit), the following formu-
las apply:
Formula 1: H
< V

Formula 2: H
+ V

For vent configurations requiring more than two 90° elbow the
following formulas apply:
Formula 1: H

Since only formula 2 is met, this vent configuration is unac-
ceptable and a new fireplace location or vent configuration
will need to be established to satisfy both formulas.
