For vent configurations requiring more than two 90° elbows, the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: H
T
< V
T
Formula 2: H
T
+ V
T
< 40 feet (12.2m)
Example:
V

= 2 FT (0.6m)

H

+ V
T
= 7.2FT (2.2m) + 8FT (2.4m) = 15.2 FT (4.6m)
Formula 1:

T
7.2 FT (2.2m) < 8 FT (2.4m)
Formula 2:
H
T
+ V
T
< 40 FT (12.2m)
15.2 FT (4.6m) < 40 FT (12.2m)
Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is acceptable.
