The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between vertical
and horizontal side wall venting, will help to determine the
various dimensions allowable. Figure 10
Horizontal and vertical sections of this vent system
require a minimum of 1" clearance to combustibles at the
top, sides and bottom.
When vent exits through foundations less than 20" below
outcrop, the termination must be ush up with outcropped
wall above.
It is best to locate the replace 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 ue collar of the replace (or the top of the
Transition Elbow) to the face of the nished outside wall.
• The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall
installation is three (3). Figure 14
• A minimum of 12" is required before a 90° elbow. If a 90°
elbow is tted directly after 12" vertical section mounted
to the top of the replace, the maximum horizontal vent
run before the termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914
mm). Figure 15

In Figure 16 dimension A plus B must not be greater than
14Z\x' (4.4 m).
• For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run, the
length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18" (45
cm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows are installed
on the vertical part of the vent system.
• The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system is
270°. Figure 17

• If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run (level
height maintained) the horizontal vent length is reduced
by 36". Figures 16 and 17. This does not apply if the 90°
elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical rise.
Example: According to the vent graph (Page 13) the maxi-
mum horizontal vent length in a system with a 10' vertical
rise is 17Z\x’ (5.3 m) and if a 90° elbow is required in the
horizontal vent it must be reduced to 14Z\x' (4.4 m).
