7 - Immediately after applying last coat of cement to pipe,
and while both inside socket surface and end of pipe
are wet with cement, forcefully insert end of pipe into
socket until it bottoms out. Turn PVC pipe 1/4 turn dur
ing assembly (but not after pipe is fully inserted) to dis
tribute cement evenly. DO NOT turn ABS or cellular
core pipe.
NOTE - Assembly should be completed within 20 sec
onds after last application of cement. Hammer blows
should not be used when inserting pipe.
8 - After assembly, wipe excess cement from pipe at end
of fitting socket. A properly made joint will show a
bead around its entire perimeter. Any gaps may indi
cate an improper assembly due to insufficient sol
vent.
9 - Handle joints carefully until completely set.
Venting Practices

Piping Suspension Guidelines
NOTE - Isolate piping at the point where it exits the outside wall or
roof in order to prevent transmission of vibration to the structure.

If an ML196DFE furnace replaces a furnace which was
commonly vented with another gas appliance, the size of
the existing vent pipe for that gas appliance must be
checked. Without the heat of the original furnace flue prod
ucts, the existing vent pipe is probably oversized for the
single water heater or other appliance. The vent should be
checked for proper draw with the remaining appliance.

REPLACING FURNACE THAT
WAS PART OF A COMMON
VENT SYSTEM
1. In areas where piping penetrates joists or interior
walls, hole must be large enough to allow clearance on
all sides of pipe through center of hole using a hanger.
2. When furnace is installed in a residence where unit is
shut down for an extended period of time, such as a
vacation home, make provisions for draining conden
sate collection trap and lines.
Exhaust Piping (Figures 24 and 25)
Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with installa
tion following instructions given in piping termination sec
tion.
CAUTION
Do not discharge exhaust into an existing stack or
stack that also serves another gas appliance. If verti
cal discharge through an existing unused stack is re
quired, insert PVC pipe inside the stack until the end
is even with the top or outlet end of the metal stack.
CAUTION
The exhaust vent pipe operates under positive pres
sure and must be completely sealed to prevent leak
age of combustion products into the living space.
