VENTING
NOTE:
Planning for the venting system should be done in conjunction
with planning for the ductwork, drainage, and furnace accessories, such
as air cleaners and humidifiers. Begin assembling the venting system
AFTER
the furnace is set in place in the required orientation.
Venting for this furnace shall follow all Local codes for Category IV
venting systems. This furnace is CSA approved for venting with
PVC/ABS DWV venting systems. This furnace is also CSA approved
for venting with M&G DuraVent
R
PolyPro
R
or Centrotherm InnoFlue
R
polypropylene venting systems using single wall straight and flex, and
required fittings (elbows, reducers, increasers, connectors, adapters)
only.
NOTE:
THESE INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT
CONTAIN DETAILED
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR POLYPROPYLENE
VENTING SYSTEMS. Refer to the polypropylene venting system
manufacturer’s installation instructions for the polypropylene venting
system installation.
NOTE:
When using polypropylene venting systems, all venting
materials used, including the vent terminations, must be from the same
manufacturer.
Special Venting Requirements for Installations in
Canada
Installation in Canada must conform to the requirements of CSA B149
code. Vent systems
must
be composed of pipe, fittings, cements, and
primers listed to ULC S636. The special vent fittings, accessory
concentric vent termination kits and accessory external drain trap
available from the furnace manufacturer have been certified to ULC
S636 for use with those Royal Pipe and IPEX PVC vent components
which have been certified to this standard. In Canada, the primer and
cement must be of the same manufacturer as the vent system – GVS-65
Primer (Purple) for Royal Pipe or IPEX System 636, PVC/CPVC
Primer, Purple Violet for Flue Gas Venting and GVS-65 PVC Solvent
Cement for Royal Pipe or IPEX System 636
(1)
t, PVC Cement for Flue
Gas Venting, rated Class IIA, 65 deg C. must be used with this venting
system - do not mix primers and cements from one manufacturer with a
vent system from a different manufacturer. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions in the use of primer and cement and never use primer or
cement beyond its expiration date.
The safe operation, as defined by ULC S636, of the vent system is based
on following these installation instructions, the vent system
manufacturer’s installation instructions, and proper use of primer and
cement. All fire stop and roof flashing used with this system must be UL
listed material. Acceptability under Canadian standard CAN/CSA B149
is dependent upon full compliance with all installation instructions.
Under this standard, it is recommended that the vent system be checked
once a year by qualified service personnel.
The authority having jurisdiction (gas inspection authority, municipal
building department, fire department, etc.) should be consulted before
installation to determine the need to obtain a permit.

Consignes spéciales pour l’installation de
ventilation au Canada
L’installation faite au Canada doit se conformer aux exigences du code
CSA B149. Ce systême de ventillation
doit
se composer de tuyaux,
raccords, ciments et apprêts conformes au ULC S636. La tuyauterie de
ventilation des gaz, ses accessoires, le terminal concentrique mural ainsi
que l’ensemble du drain de condensation extérieur fourni par le fabricant
de cette fournaise ont été certifiés ULCS 636 pour l’application des
composantes Royal Pipe, IPEX PVC qui sont certifiées à ce standard.
Au Canada, l’apprêt et le ciment doivent être du même fabricant que le
système d’évacuation. L’apprêt GVS-65 (Purple) et le ciment-solvant
GVS-65 doivent être utilisé avec les Royal Pipe. Système IPEX 636,
apprêt PVC/CPVC, Purple pour évacuation des gaz de combustion et
système IPEX 636(1)t, ciment PVC pour évacuation des gaz de
combustion, coté classe IIA, 65 deg C. doivent être utilisés avec le
système d’évacuation IPEX 636 – Ne pas combiner l ’apprêt et le ciment
d’un manufacturier avec un système d’évacuation d’un manufacturier
différent.
Bien suivre les indications du manufacturier lors de l’utilisation de
l’apprêt et du ciment et ne pas utiliser ceux-ci si la date d’expiration est
atteinte.
L’opération sécuritaire, tel que définit par ULC S636, du système de
ventilation est basé sur les instructions d’installation suivantes, ainsi que
l’usage approprié de lapprêt et ciment. Tout arrët feu et solin de toit
utilisés avec ce système doivent être des matériaux listés UL.
L’acceptation du standard Canadien CAN/CSA B149 est directement
relié à l’installation conforme aux instructions ci- haut mentionnées. Le
standard Canadien recommande l’inspection par un personel qualifié et
ce, une fois par année.
Les autoritées ayant juridiction (inspecteurs de gas, inspecteurs en
bâtiments, département des incendies, etc) devraient être consultées
avant l’installation afin de déterminer si un permis est requis.
General
If this furnace replaces a furnace that was connected to a vent system or
chimney, the vent or vent connectors of other remaining appliances may
need to be re-sized. Vent systems or vent connectors of other appliances
must be sized to the minimum size as determined using appropriate table
found in the current edition of National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI
Z-223.1. In Canada, refer to CAN/CSA-B149.1.
An abandoned masonry chimney may be used as a raceway for properly
insulated and supported combustion-air (when applicable) and vent
pipes. Each furnace must have its own set of combustion-air and vent
pipes and be terminated individually, as shown in
for Direct Vent
(2-Pipe) system, or
for single-pipe or ventilated combustion air
option.
A furnace shall not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate
appliance designed to burn solid fuel.
Other gas appliances with their own venting system may also use the
abandoned chimney as a raceway providing it is permitted by local code,
the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, and the vent or liner
manufacturer’s installation instructions. Care must be taken to prevent
the exhaust gases from one appliance from contaminating the
combustion air of other gas appliances.
Do not take combustion air from inside the chimney when using
ventilated combustion air or single-pipe vent option.
These furnaces can be vented as direct-vent (two-pipe), ventilated
combustion air or non-direct (single-pipe) vent system. Each type of
venting system is described below. Common venting between these
furnaces or other appliances is prohibited.
Materials
USA
Combustion air and vent pipe, fittings, primers, and solvents must
