SECTION I - Pre-Installation Items
General Requirements
Installation of the vent/air system must comply with
local codes and requirements and with the National
Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54, ANSI Z223.1 for installa-
tions in the U.S. For Installations in Canada, the
installation must comply with CAN/CSA B149.1.
The vent/air system must be fully constructed using
ONLY the CHALLENGER Concentric Vent/Air
System components from Triangle Tube. Do not
mix other vent components or joining methods from
other manufacturers.
Do not mix vent components or joining meth-
ods from any other vent manufacturer with
Triangle Tube’s CHALLENGER Concentric
Vent/Air System. Failure to comply with this
requirement could cause vent failure result-
ing in leakage of flue products into the living
space of the building.
WARNING
Do not connect more than a single appliance into
the vent/air system.
All penetrations of the vent/air system through ceil-
ings, floors, walls or roofs must be properly fire
stopped. The installer must comply with all local
codes and requirements regarding fire stops and
vent/air penetrations.
The vent/air system must not penetrate or be routed
through any active vent system or chimney.
