11 - INSTALLATION - CATEGORY IV: Vent and combustion air
11.8.1 - Polypropylene air
intake connection
Combustion Air Intake connection
(see Figure 11-13 Item “M”) is used to
provide combustion air directly to the
appliance from outdoors. Combustion
air piping must be supported per
guidelines listed in the National
Mechanical Code, Section 305, Table
305.4 or as local codes dictate.
To connect a polypropylene pipe to
the air intake connection proceed as
follows while referring to Figure 11-13:
1.- Install appliance adapter “P” (Field
provided) above exit “M” using
gasket “D” and bolts “E”;
2.- Insert vent pipe “N”, into adapter
“P”, following instruction of
polypropylene pipe manufacturer.
11.8.2 - Polypropylene
vent connection
Vent connection (Figure 11-13 item
“C”) is used to provide a passageway
for conveying combustion gases
to the outside. Vent piping must be
supported per the National Building
Code, Section 305, Table 305.4 or as
local codes dictate.
To connect a polypropylene pipe
to the vent connection proceed as
follows while referring to Figure 11-13:
1.- Install appliance adapter “B” (Field
provided) above exit “C” using
gasket “D” and bolts “E”;
2.- Insert vent pipe “G”, into adapter
“B”, following instruction of
polypropylene pipe manufacturer.
WARNING!!!
Do not
cover with thermal insulation
polypropylene exhaust pipe nor
install into an enclosure, closet,
