PERMITS
Check with your local Building Official, Fire 
Official, or other authority having jurisdiction

GENERAL INSTALLATION NOTES

Read these instructions before beginning.  
You must use only authorized M&G DuraVent 
PolyPro vent parts, or other parts specifically 
authorized in these instructions and/or listed 
by the appliance manufacturer in order to 
maintain a safe, approved system.

• 

Do not fill any air space clearance   

(

Table 1

) with insulation.

• 

Do not mix parts or try to match with 
other products or use improvised 
solutions.  

• 

Do not install damaged or modified 
parts. 

• 

Use soapy water to lubricate gaskets.

• 

Never use Petroleum base lubricants.

If these directions and those of the appliance 
manufacturer differ, follow the more 
conservative requirements. If you have any 
questions, contact either your dealer or M&G 
DuraVent directly.  A venting system must 
not be routed into, through, or within any 
other vent, such as an existing masonry or 
factory-built chimney flue, unless that vent 
or chimney is not being used to vent another 
appliance and is only used as a conduit for 
the gas-vent system.  Plastic venting systems 
shall not pass through fire rated separations 
without approved firestopping. 

PolyPro attains Flame Spread / Smoke 
Developed ratings of <25 / <50 (per UL-723, 
ASTM E-84 and ULC-S102) when used in 
conjunction with the below noted materials:

• 

3M Fire Barrier Plenum Wrap 5A+

• 

Unifrax FyreWrap 0.5 Plenum Insulation

• 

Knauf Insulation- Atmosphere Duct 
Wrap with ECOSE

• 

Alternate equivalent listed product

Always follow the particular installation 
instructions from the insulation wrap 
manufacturer, in addition to those for the 
PolyPro vent system.  The venting system 
shall be securely supported using suitable 
hangers installed after the pipe has been 
properly wrapped.  Hardware must not 
deform or damage the vent or wrap.
