Figure 19 - Maximum Elbow Usage 
•   Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the horizontal 
run. For each 45° elbow used on the horizontal plane, 
the maximum horizontal length must be reduced by 18" 
(450mm). 
Example: Maximum horizontal length 
 
No elbows   =   10’ (3m)
 
1x45° elbows   =   8.5’ (2.6m)
 
2x45° elbows   =   7’ (2.1m)
•   A minimum of an 8' (2.5m) vertical rise is required.
•   Two sets of 45°elbows offsets may be used within the 
vertical sections. From 0 to a maximum of 8' (2.5 m) of 
vent pipe can be used between elbows. See Figure 19.

point of penetration.
Vertical sections of this vent system require a 
minimum of 1" clearance to combustibles on all sides 
of the pipe.
