This water heater is certied for sidewall direct venting
with IPEX System 636 Low Prole Vent Kit. Follow
instructions below for proper installations.
All termination kits must be located and installed in
accordance with local building code and CSA B149.1
Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
1. Once the proper location has been determined, cut
2 holes in the wall large enough to accommodate
the pipe. Pipe diameters and distance between hole
centers can be found in Table 12.
2. Slide both the intake and exhaust pipes through the
holes. Solvent cement both pipes to the base of the
vent termination kit, follow the solvent cementing
procedures outlined in the IPEX System 636
Installation Guide, which is available on the web
www.ipexinc.com.
3. To fasten the Base to the wall, use the supplied
screws and anchors. A 3/16” (5mm) hole, 1-3/16”
(30mm) deep, will need to be drilled for the anchors.
Locate the anchor hole using the base as a template.
4. Screw the Cap to the Base using the supplied screws.
5. Once the vent termination and pipes are secured,
the wall penetrations will need to be sealed from the
interior using a PVC-compatible sealant material.
6. All vent pipes and air inlets must terminate at the
same height to avoid possibility of severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage.
7. Operate heater through 1 heat cycle to ensure
combustion-air and vent pipes are properly connected
to concentric vent termination
