Vent length in table is equivalent length. Each elbow is equivalent to 5ft. of straight pipe and should be included when measuring
total length.
NOTE - Concentric terminations are the equivalent of 5ft. and should be considered when measuring pipe length.
NOTE - Maximum uninsulated vent lengths listed may include the termination (vent pipe exterior to the structure) and cannot exceed
5 linear feet or the maximum allowable intake or exhaust vent length listed in Table 13A through Table 13C.
NOTE - If insulation is required in an unconditioned space, it must be located on the pipe closest to the furnace. See Figure 27.
