The chart will help you in determining proper venting size
according to the equivalent feet of pipe calculated in Vent
Termination Calculation Table and the altitude above sea
level of this installation. See Figure 12.1.

Locate the calculated equivalent feet of pipe on the vertical
left side of the chart. Move to the right horizontally on the
chart until you reach your altitude above sea level.

If you fall below the diagonal line, 3 or 4 inch (76 to 102mm)
pipe may be used. If it is anywhere above the diagonal line,
a 4 inch (102mm) diameter pipe is required.

The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as restrictive
to the flow of exhaust gases under positive pressure as one
foot of horizontal pipe, and a foot of horizontal pipe is twice
as restrictive as a foot of vertical pipe.

Fire Risk.
Do NOT pack insulation or other
combustibles between firestops.

• ALWAYS maintain specified clearances
around venting and firestop systems.
• Install firestops as specified.
Failure to keep insulation or other material
away from vent pipe may cause fire.
