• The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall installation is three (3). Figure 11
• A minimum of 24" is required before a 90° elbow. If a 90° elbow is fitted directly after 24" vertical
section mounted to the top of the fireplace, the maximum horizontal vent run before the termination
or a vertical rise is 36” (914 mm). Figure 12

The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to
determine the various dimensions allowable. Figure 10
NOTE: Horizontal sections of this vent system require a minimum of 3" clearances to combustibles
at the top of the flue and 1" clearance at the sides and bottom until the flue penetrates the outside
wall. A minimum 1" clearance all around the flue is acceptable at this point of penetration.
Vertical sections of this vent system require a minimum of 1" clearance to combustibles on all
sides of the pipe.
When vent exits through foundations less than 20" below outcrop, the termination must be flush up with
outcropped wall above.
It is best to locate the fireplace in such a way that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent
length.
The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent pipe from the flue collar of the fireplace (or the
top of the Transition Elbow) to the face of the finished outside wall.
