INSTALLATION STANDARDS
MATERIAL UNITED STATES CANADA
Stainless Steel UL 1738 Venting must be ULC-S636 certied for use as
PVC, sch 40 ANSI/ASTM D1785 venting material. The venting material class must be
CPVC, sch 40 ANSI/ASTM F441 chosen based upon the maximum ue gas temperature
Polypropylene
ULC-S636 and the intended application of the boiler.

REMARQUE : Acheminer le tube d’évent à l’appareil de
chauage le plus directement possible. Veuillez voir le
tableau 4 à la page 13 pour le bon diamètre vs. longueur
autorisée. Le tuyau d’évacuation doit pitch vers le haut,
vers la borne d’évent, pas moins de 1/4 “ par pied,
de sorte que les condensats courir vers l’ et appareil
écouler thru le réservoir des condensats. Portions
horizontales du système d’aération doit être soutenu
pour empêcher l’aaissement et peut ne pas avoir de
faibles sections qui pourraient piéger des condensats
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COMMON VENTING: A
single vent that is shared by multiple units MUST be
engineered by a competent venting specialist, and
involves the selection of draft inducing equipment,
hardware and controls to properly balance ue gas
pressures. Do not common vent units unless the
vent system meets this requirement. These units
are never permitted to share a vent with Category I
appliances.
Venting Requirements Unique to Canada
These boilers and water heaters are Vent Category IV
appliances. Per the requirements of CAN/CSA-B149.1,
only BH vent systems can be connected to these units
and such vent systems, either ULC S636 certied
stainless steel or other ULC S636 certied BH vent (eg.
plastics) must be installed per the vent manufacturer’s
certied installation instructions.
As a result, two items listed in the Installation Kit (Figure
10 and Figure 11) are not included with these units for
Canada (underlined):
A exhaust vent terminal (not included)
B. air intake terminal
C. temperature/pressure gauge kit
D. circulator pump/wire harness (units with pump)
E. CPVC exhaust pipe section (80-500) (not incl.)
F. outdoor/system sensor kit
G. ow switch kit (399-850)
H. alternate size vent/terminal screens
J. exhaust vent adapter CPVC/ST ST (750-850)
It is the responsibility of the appropriately licensed
technician installing this unit to use ULC S636 certied
vent material consistent with the requirements as
described in the Venting and Combustion Air section.
Class I venting systems are suitable for gas-red
appliances producing ue gas temperature of more than
135°C, but not more than 245°C.
Class II venting systems are suitable for gas-red
appliances producing ue gas temperatures of 135°C or
less.
Class II venting systems are further classied into four
temperature ratings as follows:
A Up to and including 65°C
B Up to and including 90°C
C Up to and including 110°C, and
D Up to and including 135°C
IMPORTANT! It is also the responsibility of the installer
to ensure that a ue gas sampling port is installed in
the vent system. This ue gas sampling port must be
installed near the ue connection of the unit: within 2 feet
of the ue connection. There is no ue gas sampling port
