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 manufacturers
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
manufacturers 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 lutilisation 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.

WARNING
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the instructions outlined below for each appliance
being placed into operation could result in carbon monoxide poisoning
or death.
For all venting configurations for this appliance and other gas
appliances placed into operation for the structure, provisions for
adequate combustion, ventilation, and dilution air must be provided in
accordance with:
U.S.A. Installations
: Current edition
of Section 9.3 N
FPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1 Air for Combustion and Ventilation and applicable provisions
of the local building codes.

and all authorities having jurisdiction.
NOTICE
!
RECOMMENDED SUPPORT FOR VENT
TERMINATION
It is recommended that sidewall vent terminations of over 24 inches
(0.6 M) in length or rooftop vent terminations of over 36 inches (1 M)
in length be supported by EITHER the factory accessory vent
termination kit or field-supplied brackets or supports attached to the
structure. A factory accessory vent termination kit may be used for
direct vent terminations. Termination kits are available for 2-in. or 3-in.
