Uappr_t GVS-65 (Purple) et le ciment-solvant GVS-65 doivent
_tre utilise avec les Royal Pipe. Systeme IPEX 636, appr_t
PVC/CPVC, Purple pour evacuation des gaz de combustion et
systeme IPEX 636(1)t, ciment PVC pour evacuation des gaz
de combustion, cote classe IIA, 65 deg C. doivent _tre utilises
avec le systeme d'evacuation IPEX 636 - Ne pas combiner I
'appr_t et le ciment d'un manufacturier avec un systeme
d'evacuation d'un manufacturier different.
Bien suivre les indications du manufacturier Iors de I'utilisation
de I'appr_t et du ciment et ne pas utitiser ceux-ci si la date
d'expiration est atteinte.
Uoperation securitaire, tel que definit par ULC S636, du
systeme de ventilation est base sur les instructions
d'instaltation suivantes, ainsi que I'usage approprie de I'appr_t
et ciment. Tout arret feu et solin de toit utilises avec ce
systeme doivent _tre des materiaux listes UL. Uacceptation du
standard Canadien CAN/CSA B149 est directement relie&
I'installation conforme aux instructions ci- haut mentionnees. Le
standard Canadien recommande I' inspection par un personel
qualifie et ce, une fois par annee.
Les autoritees ayant juridiction (inspecteurs de gas,
inspecteurs en b&timents, departement des incendies, etc)
devraient _tre consultees avant I'instatlation afin de determiner
si un permis est requis.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each ap-
oliance connected to the venting system being placed
into operation could result in carbon monoxide poison-
ing or death.
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each ap-
oliance connected to the venting system being placed
into operation could result in carbon monoxide poison-
ing or death.
1. Seal any unused openings in venting system.
2. Inspect the venting system for proper size and hori-
zontal pitch, as required in the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the CSA B149.1 Nat-
ural Gas and Propane Installation Code and these in-
structions. Determine that there is no blockage or re-
striction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies,
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. As far as practical, close all building doors and win-
dows and all doors between the space inwhich the ap-
pliance(s) connected to the venting system are loc-
ated and other spaces of the building.
4. Close fireplace dampers.
5. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connec-
ted to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans,
such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they
are operating at maximum speed. Do not operate a
summer exhaust fan.
6. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance
being inspected into operation. Adjust the thermostat
so appliance is operating continuously.
7. Test for spillage from draft hood equipped appliances
at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main
burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
8. If improper venting is observed during any of the
above tests, the venting system must be corrected in
accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code.
9. After it has been determined that each appliance con-
nected to the venting system properly vents when
tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, ex-
haust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-fired
burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.
General
If this furnace replaces a furnace that was connected to a vent
system or chimney, the vent or vent connectors of other
remaining appliances may need to be re-sized. Vent systems
or vent connectors of other appliances must be sized to the
minimum size as determined using appropriate table found in
the current edition of National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI
Z-223.1. In Canada, refer to CAN/CSA-B149.1
An abandoned masonry chimney may be used as a raceway
for properly insulated and supported combustion-air (when
applicable) and vent pipes. Each furnace must have its own set
of combustion-air and vent pipes and be terminated
individually, as shown in Figure 49 for Direct Vent (2-Pipe)
system, or Figure 50 for single-pipe or ventilated combustion
air option.
A furnace shall not be connected to a chimney flue serving a
separate appliance designed to burn solid fuel. Other gas
appliances with their own venting system may also use the
abandoned chimney as a raceway providing it is permitted by
local code, the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code,
and the vent or liner manufacturer's installation instructions.
Care must be taken to prevent the exhaust gases from one
appliance from contaminating the combustion air of other gas
appliances.
Do not take combustion air from inside the chimney when using
ventilated combustion air or single-pipe vent option.
These furnaces can be vented as direct-vent (two-pipe),
ventilated combustion air, or non-direct (single-pipe) vent
system. Each type of venting system is described below.
Common venting between these furnaces or other appliances
is prohibited.
Materials
U.S.A.
Combustion air and vent pipe, fittings, primers, and solvents
must conform to American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
standards and American Society for Testing and Materials
(ASTM) standards. See Table 13 for approved materials for
use in the U.S.A. This furnace is also CSA approved for venting
with M&G DuraVent® PolyPro® polyproplylene venting
systems.
Canada
Special Venting Requirements for Installations in Canada
Installation in Canada must conform to the requirements of
CAN/CSA B149 code. Vent systems must be composed of
pipe, fittings, cements, and primers listed to ULC $636. M&G
DuraVent PolyPro polyproplylene venting systems are ULC
$636 listed.
NOTE: When using polypropylene venting systems, all venting
materials used, including the vent terminations, must be from
the same manufacturer.
