Horizontal Vent Tables And Figures - Lennox MPDT33RNM Installation Instructions Manual

LENNOX HEARTH PRODUCTS • MERIT PLUS
HORIZONTAL VENT FIGURES/TABLES
Note: Secure Vent components (rigid vent pipe and terminal) are
®
shown in the figures; Secure Flex
terminal) may also be used.
Note: Two 45 degree elbows may be used in place of one 90 degree
elbow. The same rise to run ratios, as shown in the venting figures for
90 elbows, must be followed if 45 degree elbows are used.
Note: It is very important that the horizontal/inclined run be
maintained in a straight (no dips), slightly elevated plane. The
recommended incline is approximately 1/4 in. per foot (20 mm per
meter) horizontal, in a direction away from the fireplace. The rise
per foot run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the way down to
at or near level.
Note: SV4.5VF (Secure Vent ), SF4.5VF (Secure Flex) firestop/spacer
®
must be used anytime vent pipe passes through a combustible floor or
ceiling. SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex) firestop/spacer
must be used anytime vent pipe passes through a combustible wall.
WARNING
Under no circumstances, may separate sections of
concentric flexible vent pipe be joined together.

Example: If 20 feet of (H)
horizontal vent run is needed,
then 4 feet minimum of (V)
vertical vent will be required.
This table shows a 1 (V) to 5
(H) ratio. For every 1 foot of
(V) vertical, you are allowed 5
feet of (H) horizontal run, up
to a maximum horizontal run
of 20 feet.
