CHAPTER 6 - INSTALLING VENT/COMBUSTION AIR & CONDENSATE DRAIN
6.1. Installing Vent and Combustion Air
The INSTINCT must be vented and supplied
with combustion air as shown in the IN
STINCT
Vent Supplement, included in the installa-
tion envelope. Refer to instructions for parts
list and method of installation.
Once installation is completed, inspect the
vent and combustion air system thoroughly
to ensure systems are airtight, properly sup-
ported, and comply with the instructions giv-
en in the venting supplement and are within
all requirements of applicable codes. Failure
to comply with the venting and combustion
air piping installation requirements will re-
sult in substantial property damage, serious
injury, or death.
Contact Triangle Tube for other venting options
including PVC Concentric Vent/Air Termination
and Stainless Steel or PVC Flush Mount Horizon-
tal Terminations. Refer to the instructions includ-
ed with these kits for method of installation.
6.2. Installing Condensate Drain Assembly
into INSTINCT Solo Units
The condensate drain assembly is factory-in-
stalled in the INSTINCT Combi units.
1. Locate the condensate drain assembly and ensure
the seals are installed as shown in Fig. 24 on page
39.
The installer may want to fill the condensate
drain assembly with water prior to assembling
on the unit.
Do not operate the boiler without the fac-
tory-supplied condensate drain assembly
installed. Operation of the boiler without
the condensate drain assembly installed can
result in property damage, serious injury, or
death.

2. Install the condensate drain assembly on the boiler
condensate drain by pushing the condensate drain
assembly up until it stops.
3. Tighten the condensate drain assembly retaining nut.
• Ensure installation of the condensate
drain assembly included the seals. Failure
to comply could result in the assembly
dislocating from the boiler. Dislocation of
the condensate drain assembly can result
in property damage, serious injury, or
death.
• Ensure the condensate drain assembly
contains the plastic ball. Do not install
the condensate drain assembly if the ball
is lost or missing, replace the entire as-
sembly. Installing the condensate drain
assembly without the plastic ball can re-
sult in substantial property damage, seri-
ous injury, or death.
4. Remove the compression nut and rubber seal from
the condensate drain assembly drain outlet.
5. Slide the compression nut and rubber seal over the
3/4” x 2’ exible tube provided.
The use of 3/4” PVC or CPVC pipe is also accept-
able. If 3/4” pipe is used, deburr and chamfer
pipe to allow mating onto the drain assembly.
6. Thread the rubber seal into the compression nut to ease
installation of the tube to the condensate drain assembly.
7. Seat the tube onto the condensate drain assembly
and tighten the compression nut. Hand tight only!
• The installer may opt to use 13/16” ID tub-
ing in lieu of provided tube.
• The drain line materials must be an ap-
proved material by the authority having
jurisdiction. In absence of such authority,
PVC and CPVC piping must comply with
ASTM D1785 or D2845. The cement and
primer used on the piping must comply
with ASME D2564 or F493. For installations
in Canada, use ULC certified PVC or CPVC
pipe, fittings and cement/primer.
