Vitodens Rigid and Flex Venting Systems Installation
Single Pipe Venting (Room Air Dependent)
Requirements for UL/ULC Listed Rigid PP(s) Vent Pipe Material
When replacing parts, use original manufacturer
replacement parts.
The venting system must be installed by a licensed
professional heating contractor familiar with the operation
and maintenance of heating appliances and venting.
Before installing this product, ensure that the complete
installation literature has been read. Failure to follow proper
installation procedures as stated in these instructions,
including vent pitch and proper appliance connections,
may violate local, provincial/state, or national codes and
cause unsafe conditions which may lead to severe property
damage or personal injury.
Prior to installation, check that the correct single-pipe vent
parts were ordered and supplied.
The venting system must be installed in accordance with
local building code requirements as well as national codes.
For installations in Canada use CAN/CSA-B149.1 Natural
Gas Installation Code or CAN/CSA-B149.2 Propane
Installation Code as applicable; in the U.S. use the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 or NFPA Standard 54.
Always use latest edition of applicable standard.
To ensure safe operation of the appliance, Viessmann
recommends that the system be inspected once a year
by a qualified service technician.
Every venting system must be planned and installed for
optimum performance and safety. These Installation
Instructions are designed to help you determine venting
requirements and limitations with respect to installation.
Please read and follow these instructions carefully.
It is the responsibility of the installer to contact local
building and fire officials concerning any installation
restrictions and/or inspection requirements that may apply.
Permits may be required before commencement of the
installation.
The air intake termination for side wall air intake installations
should be located on a wall that is least affected by
prevailing winds. High winds may affect boiler operation.
IMPORTANT
The Vitodens boiler, flue gas adaptor and parallel adaptor
(if used) are approved together under CSA 4.9. ANSI
Z21.13 Standard.
The venting system components are tested and listed to
ULC S636 or UL 1738 and are marked and labelled on
each component.
DO NOT mix pipe, fittings, or joining methods from
different vent system manufacturers. DO NOT use
adhesives of any kind with this venting system.
The vent length requirements stated on page 81 in this
manual must be observed.
Flue gases are discharged via rigid PP(s) vent components
to the outdoors. This vent system is constructed from
flame-retardant plastic [polypropylene rated for a maximum
temperature of 230ºF (110ºC)].
IMPORTANT
Vent System Manufacturers
The following Coaxial and PP(s) vent system manufacturers
may be contacted for assistance in designing the appropriate
venting system for Vitodens 100 and Vitodens 200 boilers.
All manufacturers deliver PP(s) concentric vents in 3 sizes.
Listed manufacturers deliver PP(s) rigid and flexible vents
in the required sizes.
For Vitodens WB2B 80, 105 and B2HA 80, 88, 150 (with
boiler flue adaptor 110 - 150) the vent manufacturers
developed special transition adaptors.
Because of its sealed combustion chamber, the Vitodens
gas-fired condensing boiler is suitable for operation with
balanced flue.
* Provides double pipe system with coaxial termination.
