Rinnai CVent
A6 General Assembly Instructions
Correct Pitch
The pipes and formed parts must be installed at an angle of 3° incline towards
the heating appliance, to allow the condensate to dispose in accordance with
regulations.
Note: 3° Pitch equals a height difference of 2” per 3 ft (5.6 cm/meter)
Lubricant
The seals and male ends of all CVent common vent components must be
lubricated before assembly. Use
ONLY
CENTROCERIN© lubricant or
water to aid in the assembly of these vent components.
Apply a thin layer of CENTROCERIN© lubricant to each seal before as-
sembly.
A tube CENTROCERIN© lubricant is packed with every kit assembly and
available for separate purchase.
1 tube of CENTROCERIN© lubricant is sufficient for a 100ft common
header installation
Flow Direction
The female end of the components in contact with the flue gasses must
always point in the direction of the termination.
It is imperative to maintain this flow direction for proper condensate flow
and integrity of the seal/gasket.
Seal Direction and Assembly of Seals
Seals are pre-assembled in the vent components. If a seal is missing or dam-
aged, this component should not be used or an appropriate seal must be in-
stalled.
Use ONLY CVent original seals. NEVER use fabricated or non CVent
seals.
Use only the appropriate nominal width and diameter seals.
Confirm seal is installed in the appropriate direct (see figure)
Seal and Seal Chamfer must remain clean and free of foreign debris be-
fore assembly.
Joining, Disconnecting, Shortening and Chamfering
For measuring purposes the seals can be removed from their chamber.
Note: always reassemble the seals in the right direction, as indicated in
the illustration.
Lubricate the seals and/or male ends of the components with CENTRO-
CERIN©
lubricant or water and assemble the components using light rota-
tional movements. Entirely insert the male end into the female end.
Inspect immediately the correct position of the seal as the system is pro-
duced out of translucent material
Pipes are always shortened on the male end. Never cut or modify formed
vent components such as elbows or collectors.
Cut straight ,perpendicular to the tube and chamfer the edges approxi-
mately 15° at 1/4”.
