Poly-Propylene vent pipe (PP) by Duravent and Centrotherm.
NOTE - Concentric terminations are the equivalent of 5' 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 12 or 13 which ever is less.
NOTE - If insulation is required in an unconditioned space, it must be located on the pipe closest to the furnace. See figure31.

Vent length in the table is equivalent length. Each elbow is equivalent to 5ft of straight pipe length and should be included in measuring total pipe length.
