8 - COMBUSTION AIR AND VENT PIPE
8.1 Connections And Termination
Boilers for connection to gas vents or chimneys, vent 
installations shall be in accordance with “Venting of 
Equipment” of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54, or “Venting Systems and Air Supply for 
Appliances”, of the Natural Gas and Propane Installation 
Code, CAN/CSA B149.1, or applicable provisions of local 
building codes. 
Provisions for combustion and ventilation air must be 
in accordance with section, Air For Combustion and 
Ventilation, of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI 2223.1/
NFPA54, National Gas and Propane Installation Code, CAN/
CGA-B 149.1, in absence of such requirements to the 
Authority having jurisdiction.
Boilers require dedicated direct vent system. All air for 
combustion is taken directly from outdoors through 
combustion air intake pipe. All flue products are discharged 
to outdoors through vent pipe.
1. 
See
 
Figures 5 and 6 for two pipe combustion air 
and vent pipe roof and sidewall termination. Roof 
termination is preferred. Combustion air and vent pipes 
must terminate together in same atmospheric pressure 
zone as shown. 
2. 
Use of concentric vent termination see Figures 7-9for 
proper setup.
3. 
For Canadian installations all plastic venting material 
must be listed to ULC S636.  
4. 
Construction through which vent and air intake pipes 
may be installed is maximum 24 inches, minimum ¼” 
thickness.
5. 
See Table 5 for combustion air and vent pipe fittings 
approved material and standards.
6. 
Canada construct all combustion air and vent pipes 
for this unit of ULC S636 listed schedule-40 CPVC, 
schedule-40 PVC, PVC-DWV or ABS-DWV pipe and pipe 
cement. SDR pipe is not approved in Canada. 
• First 3 feet (900mm) of venting must be readily 
available for visual inspection. 
• Specified primers and glues of certified vent 
system must be from single manufacturer, and not 
intermixed with other manufacturer’s vent system 
parts.  
• Components of the certified system must not be 
interchanged with other vent systems, or unlisted pipe 
and/or fittings.
NOTICE
Transition from 2” pipe to 3” pipe must be made in 
vertical run.
7. 
Boiler combustion air and vent pipe connections are 2” 
but must increase to 3”. Due to potential for flue gas 
temperatures above 155°F, first 30” of supplied vent 
pipe is CPVC while remaining vent pipe can be PVC. Any 
replacement of first 30” of vent pipe must be made with 
CPVC.   
8. 
Covering non-metallic vent pipe and fittings with thermal 
insulation shall be prohibited.
