C. Use of Elbows
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects
when calculating the e󰀨ects. Use the rise for the vertical
aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect. See Figure 4.4.
Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow. On
45º runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216 mm)
horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run. A length
of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows. See

1. Before cutting any holes, assemble the desired sections
of direct vent pipe to determine the center of the masonry
penetration.
2. Once the center point of the penetration has been
determined, cut a 6 in. (152mm) diameter hole in the
masonry. If the hole is too large, the retro connector
might not mount properly; if the hole is too small, the
appliance might starve for intake air. If there is a frame
wall in front of the masonry wall, cut and frame a 10 in.
(254mm) square opening in the wall (centered around
the 6 in. (152mm) masonry opening). If there is sheet
rock only (no studs) in front of the masonry the 10 in.
(254mm) opening is still needed, but does not need to be
framed. If the hole is framed a wall thimble is required.
This allows the retro connector to mount directly on
the masonry and provide the correct clearances to
combustibles. See Figure 4.14.
Figure 4.15
4. To determine the length of flex needed, measure from
3 in. (76mm) above the top of the flashing down to the
level of the opening. Add the distance from the center
of the chimney out through the wall. Cut a piece of 4
in. (102mm) flex to this length (extended to its nominal
length). Be sure to leave 2-3 in. (51-76mm) of flex above
the existing chimney to allow for connection to the
