EXCEPTIONS 
FOR HORIZONTAL INSTALLATIONS:
T
he maximum horizontal vent run is 30 in.  (762mm).
The maximum horizontal vent run with a 45° elbow is 18 
in. (457mm).
No external minimum rise is required.  
The minimum horizontal vent run is 6 in. (152mm).
NOTES
The maximum horizontal vent run is 15 ft. (5m) when the 
vertical vent rise is 10 ft. (3m).
Horizontal sections require a 1/4 in. (6mm) rise for every 12 
in. (305mm) of horizontal travel.
Exterior Vent Diameter = 6-5/8 in. (168mm); Inner Vent 
Diameter = 4 in. (102mm)
Horizontal sections require noncombustible support every 3 
ft. (914mm), e.g. wall straps.
For any vertical termination a minimum of 6 in. (152mm) 
vertical must be used.

1.  Measure the vertical distance from the center line of the 
flue pipe to the center of the 90° elbow. On the graph 
below, draw a horizontal line from that measurement 
on the vertical axis across until it intersects with the 
slanted  line.
2.  From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to 
the bottom of the graph.
3.  The point at which this line meets the bottom line of the 
graph is the maximum length of the horizontal run. 
EXAMPLE 1: If the vertical dimension from the center line 
of the flue vent to the center of the 90° elbow is  7 ft. (2m), 
the horizontal run to the outer wall flange must not exceed 
9 ft.-8 in. (3m).
EXAMPLE 2: If the vertical dimension from the center line 
of the flue vent is 21 ft. (6m), the horizontal run to the outer 
wall flange must not exceed 4 ft.-3 in. (1m).
4.  Each 90° elbow is equivalent to 3 ft. (914mm) of vent 
pipe and each 45° elbow is equivalent to 1 ft. (305mm) 
of vent pipe, and must be subtracted from the vent pipe 
run. A single horizontal to vertical 90° elbow is already 
calculated into the allowable 15 ft. (5m) run. Each 
additional 90° elbow reduces the maximum horizontal 
distance by 3 ft. (914mm).
EXAMPLE: The use of 3 elbows would reduce the allowable 
horizontal run to 9 ft. (3 -1 =  2 elbows x 3 ft. = 6 ft.; 15 ft. 
max. - 6 ft. = 9 ft. max.).
NOTE: If your installation falls within the gray-shaded 
area on graph, see information on intake damper 
operation, on page 36.
*In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the word damper 
shall be replaced with the words flue restrictor.
