Matrix Installation and Operation Instructions
Termination Options
The venting system of the Matrix may be terminated using field supplied piping to construct a “Two-Pipe”
termination, see Figures 4-2(a) and 4-3(a); alternatively the venting may be terminated using a factory kit
selected from Table 4-4.
Kits certified with the Matrix are listed in Table 4-4 and available from IPEX, DuraVent, Centrotherm and/or
NTI. For more information on System 636 Vent Kits or wholesaler locations contact IPEX directly USA: 1-800-

IPEX Low Profile and Concentric kits (excluding P/N’s 197117 & 197021) are constructed out of ULC S636 approved

IPEX Concentric kits can be shortened to fit the requirements of the installation; see instructions included with the kit
for more details.

PVC In Canada - Authorities in some jurisdictions may not allow the use of any PVC
venting materials with condensing boilers; check with the local safety inspector to verify
compliance prior to installing a PVC Concentric Vent Kit with a Matrix.
Sidewall Termination - Due to potential moisture loading (build-up) along the exterior
wall, sidewall venting may not be the preferred venting option. Refer to Figure 4-3 for
roof top venting options.
