Low Profile Side Wall Termination Kit
The IPEX Low Profile side wall termination kits are fully certified for use with IPEX product only. IPEX System 636
PVC Low Profile vent kits are made from certified compound and IPEX System 1738 PVC Low Profile vent kits
are made from a UL1738 certified PVC compound. Both are rated to a maximum temperature of 149°F
(65°C) .
The vent termination must maintain all termination clearances and be installed in accordance with local
building codes and/or The National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (Latest Edition) or CGA/CAN B149
Installation Code (see Figure 25).
Each kit contains: 1 Base (two holes), 1 Cap (one hole), 8 Stainless Steel Screws, and 4 Plastic Anchors.

WARNING
When locating the penetration of the vent and air pipe, ensure the termination is properly oriented as shown
in Figure 26 and ensure that it maintains minimum clearance requirements as shown in Figure 25. For
multiple vent terminations, ensure that a minimum clearance of 12 in
(30 cm) is maintained between edge of
air inlet and adjacent vent outlet and that all vent pipes and air inlets terminate at the same height to avoid
the recirculation of flue gases and the possibility of causing severe personal injury, death, or substantial
property damage (see Figure 28).
Installation Procedure
1. Once the proper location has been determined, cut 2 holes in the wall large enough to accommodate
the pipe. Pipe diameters and distance between hole centers can be found in Table 5.
2. Slide both the intake and vent pipe through the holes. Solvent weld both pipes to the base of the vent
termination kit (see Figure 25).
3. To fasten the base to the wall, use the supplied screws and anchors. A 3/16 in (5 mm) diameter, 1/16-
3/16 in (2-5 mm) deep hole will need to be drilled for the anchors. Locate the anchor hole by using the
base as a template and then drill the required holes.
4. Screw the cap to the base using the supplied screws.
5. Once the vent termination and pipes are secured, the wall penetrations will need to be sealed from the
interior using a PVC compatible material.
CAUTION
When installing the vent termination in a vertical configuration, ensure the vent piping is located above the
air inlet piping. This will avoid the risk of flue gas products recirculating into the air inlet and building.
