To determine what diameter pipe to use in an installation (3” or 4”), fi rst
fi nd the “equivalent pipe length” using the following guidelines, then plot
this Figure and the altitude on the chart.
Fill out the installation chart, and calculate your total equivalent pipe
length. After you have the total equivalent pipe length, use the Pipe
Selection Chart below to determine if your installation requires 3” or 4”
exhaust pipe.
