For vent configurations requiring more than one 45° and one 90° elbow, the following formulas apply:
Formula 1:
H
T
< 3V
T
Formula 2:
H
T
+ V
T
< 40 feet (12.2m)
Example:
V
1
= 1 FT (0.3m)
V
2
= 1.5 FT (0.5m)
V
T
= V
1
+ V
2
= 1 FT (0.3m)+ 1.5 FT (0.5m)= 2.5 FT (0.8m)

= 6 FT (1.8m)
H
2
= 2 FT (0.6m)

1
+ H
2
= 6FT (1.8m) + 2FT (0.6m) = 8 FT (2.4m)
H
O
= .03 (one 45° + three 90° elbows - 135°)
= .03 (45 + 270 -
135°) = 5.4 FT (1.6m)
H
T
= H
R
+ H
O
= 8FT (2.4m) + 5.4FT (1.6m) = 13.4FT (4.1m)
H
T
+ V
T
= 13.4FT (4.1m)+ 2.5FT (0.8m) = 15.9FT (4.8m)
Formula 1:
H
T
< 3V
T
3V
T
= 3FT (0.9m) x 2.5FT(0.8m) = 7.5FT (2.3m)
13.4 FT (4.1m) > 7.5 FT (2.3m)
Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is
unacceptable.
Formula 2:
H
T
+ V
T
< 40 FT (12.2m)
15.9FT (4.8m) < 40FT (12.2m)
Since only formula 2 is met, this vent configuration in unacceptable and a new fireplace location or vent
configuration will need to be established to satisfy both formulas.
Example:
V
1
= 1.5 FT (0.5m)
V
2
= 8 FT (2.4m)
V
T
= V
1
+ V
2
= 1.5 FT (0.5m) + 8 FT (2.4m) = 9.5 FT (2.9m)
H
1
= 1 FT (0.3m)
H
2
= 1 FT (0.3m)
H
3
= 10.75 FT (3.3m)
H
R
= H
1
+ H
2
+ H
3
= 1FT(0.3m) + 1FT(0.3m) + 10.75FT(3.3m) = 12.75FT(3.9m)
H
O
= .03 (three 90° elbows + two 45° elbows - 135°)
= .03 (270 + 90 -
135°) = 6.75 FT (2.1m)
H
T
= H
R
+ H
O
= 12.75 FT (3.9m) + 6.75 FT (2.1m) = 19.5 FT (5.9m)
H
T
+ V
T
= 19.5FT (5.9m) + 9.5FT (2.9m) = 29 FT (8.8m)
Formula 1:
H
T
< 3V
T
3V
T
= 3 x 9.5 = 28.5 FT (8.7m)
19.5 FT (5.9m)
< 28.5 (8.7m)
Formula 2:
H
T
+ V
T
< 40 FT (12.2m)
29 FT (8.8m) < 40 FT (12.2m)
Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is acceptable.
