EquivalentVentLength(EVL)
Priortopurchasingyourpelletventpipe(typeL)youshouldplanyourventingscenariointo
determinethediameterofventpipeyoushoulduse.Pelletventpipecomesin3"and4"diameter.

Inordertodetermineifyoucanuse3"diameterpipe,youneedtocalculateyourEVL(Equivalent
VentLength).ToproperlycalculateyourEVLyoushouldmakeasimplesketchofyourplanned
installation.ThenusethefiguresbelowtodetermineyourEVL:
 90degreeelbowsorcleanoutteescountas5'ofpipe
 45degreeelbowscountas3'ofpipe
 Piperunninghorizontallycountsas1'ofpipefor1'ofpipe
 Piperunningverticallycountsas1/2'ofpipefor1'ofpipe

UsetheabovefigurestocalculatewhatyourplannedEVLwillbe.IfyourEVLislessthan15'youcan
use3"diameterpipe.IfyourEVLis15'ormoreyoushoulduse4"diameterpipe.Ifyouneedtouse
4"pipeyoushouldhavea3"to4"transitionrightoffthebackoftheunitandthenuse4"diameter
pipethroughouttheentireexhaustsystem.

Ifabove3,000'inelevation,youshoulduseonly4"diameterpipe.Inaddition,ifinstalling
the
unitinacornerandgoingoutasidewall,wehighlyrecommendthatyouuse4"pipe
regardlessofyourEVLorelevation.
