4.7 Venting and air piping system
SSB boilers must be vented and supplied with combustion and ventilation
air as described in this section.
Installation must comply with local requirements and with the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. SSB boilers vent and air piping can be
installed through the roof or through a sidewall.
Any of the vent/air piping methods covered in this manual can be used.
Do not attempt to install the boilers using any other means.
Suitable, UL approved, positive pressure, watertight vent materials MUST
be used for safety and UL certication.
SSB 800 SA, 1000 SA and 1000 TL boilers can use the following
material for venting:

(1) Components of the certied vent systems must not be interchanged
with other vent systems or unlisted pipe ttings. Plastic components
and specied primers and glues of the certied vent system must be
from a single system manufacturer and not intermixed with other system
manufacturer’s vent system parts. For installation in Canada, eld
supplied plastic vent piping must comply with CAN/CSA B149.1 (latest
edition) and be certied by the local jurisdiction.

For specic venting components (terminals, ttings), contact the
respective vent manufacturer.
SSB boilers are equipped with a ue/condensate pressure switch on each
module, able to switch off the burner in case of vent or condensate blockage.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to restart the boiler in case of
vent or condensate blockage, contact a qualied contractor.
Failure to comply with this WARNING could result in the
accumulation of carbon monoxide gas which can cause
severe personal injury or death.
DANGER: It is extremely important to follow these venting
instructions carefully. Failure to do so will cause severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

DANGER: Use of cellular core PVC (ASTM F891), cellular
core CPVC or Radel® (polyphenosulfone) in venting
systems is prohibited.
DANGER:
Covering non-metallic vent pipe and ttings with
thermal insulation is prohibited. Failure to do so will cause
severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
WARNING: Do not connect this gas appliance with any other
appliance unless approved by manufacturer. Failure to comply
with this WARNING could result in the accumulation of carbon
monoxide gas which can cause severe personal injury or death.
