Venting System Length Calculations
The maximum length for each vent pipe (inlet or exhaust) equals the Maximum Equivalent Vent Length (MEVL) from Table 12 and
Table 13 minus the number of elbows multiplied by the deduction for each elbow in Table 14.
Standard vent terminations and concentric vent terminations count for zero deduction.
Example
A Direct-Vent 60,000 BTU/Hr furnace installed at 2100 ft altitude with 2-inch vent piping.
Venting system includes, FOR EACH PIPE, (3) 90º long radius elbows, (2) 45º long radius elbows and a concentric vent kit.
Maximum Equivalent Vent Length = 127 ft Table 12
Deduct (3) 90° long radius elbows 3 x 3 ft = - 9 ft Table 14
Deduct (2) 45° long radius elbows 2 x 1.5 ft = - 3 ft Table 14
Maximum vent length
115 ft (For EACH vent or inlet pipe)
