For vent configurations requiring one or more 90° elbows (top exit) or one or more 90° elbows (rear
exit), the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: H
T
< V
T
Formula 2: H
T
+ V
T
< 40 feet
Example:
V
1
= 5 FT
V
2
= 6 FT
V

= 10 FT

H

= 2.5 FT

1
+ H

= 8 + 2.5 = 10.5 FT
H
O
= .03 (four 90° elbows - 90°)
= .03 (360° - 90°) = 8.1 FT
H

= H
R
+ H
O
= 10.5 + 8.1 = 18.6 FT
H
T
+ V
T
= 18.6 + 21 = 39.6 FT
Formula 1: H
T
< 3.5 V
T
18.6 < 21
Formula 2: H

+ V
T
< 40 FT
39.6 < 40
Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is acceptable.
