6.8 Twin Pipe Systems
Twin pipe venting allows exhaust ue and intake ue to be
separated from each other. Fresh air is drawn in at a different
area from the ue terminal location.
A.
Twin Pipe CPVC System
CPVC is approved for boiler exhaust. CPVC or PVC are both
approved for air intake.
To transition from Coaxial at the top of the boiler to Twin Pipe
CPVC/PVC a kit is available.
B.
Twin Pipe Polypropylene System
Single wall polypropylene is used for both exhaust and air
intake piping.
To transition from Coaxial at the top of the boiler to Twin Pipe
polypropylene venting an adapter kit is available.
C.
Twin Pipe Separated Flue
Exhaust and combustion air intake are not located in same
