Schebler eVent Installation Instructions, Operation And Maintenance Manual Download Page 3

 

UL LISTING 

All Schebler eVent series Models are listed to UL 1738 and 
ULC 5636‐95 for installations manufactured in even and odd 
diameters. 

 

The Schebler Models  eVent, eVent SW, eVentPLUS, and 
eVentPLUS2 may be utilized in the same system. Proper 
installation methods must be followed as called for in these 
instructions. 

 

The venting system shall terminate in accordance with the 
requirements of CAN/CGA‐b149.1, Natural Gas Installation 
code, or CAN/CGA‐B149.2 Propane Installation code. 

 

Refer to The Schebler Company Venting System catalog for 
the description of all necessary parts. 

 

VENTING APPLICATIONS 

Model eVent SW is a single wall venting system while eVent, 
eVentPLUS and eVentPLUS2 are double wall special stainless 
steel venting systems for gas fired appliances listed as 
Category II, III, & IV with a maximum flue gas temperature of 
550° F, and 40" W.C. positive pressure.  Gas vent ‐ BH, Class 
I/Class II ‐ 245° C .  Models eVent, eVentPLUS and 
eVentPLUS2 are also suitable for other applications that call 
for an AL 29‐4C vent. 

 

Models eVent, eVent SW, eVentPLUS and eVentPLUS2 are to 
be installed as a complete system connecting the 
appliance(s) to the outdoors, while operating under positive 
forced draft, negative induced draft, or neutral gravity flow 
internal pressure conditions using only Schebler models 
eVent, eVentPLUS and eVentPLUS2 vent parts.  No vent part 
from another manufacturer should ever be mixed with 
models eVent, eVent SW, eVentPLUS and eVentPLUS2. 

 

If a drain fitting is required by the appliance manufacturer, it 
must be located as close to the flue outlet as possible. 

 

Multiple category II, III & IV appliances may not be common 
vented unless approved by the manufacturers.  Do not mix 
natural draft and forced draft appliances together. 

 

Venting systems are to be sized in accordance with the 
ASHRAE Handbook, Equipment Volume, the appliance 
manufacturer’s instructions, or by contacting The Schebler 
Company. 

 

Models eVent, eVent SW, eVentPLUS and eVentPLUS2 shall 
not be routed into, through, or within any other vent such 
as an existing masonry or factory‐built vent that is 
connected to another appliance. 

 

It is recommended that venting systems be enclosed below 
the roof line to limit condensation and protect against 
mechanical damage.  Methods of providing additional 
insulation may be specified. 

 

 
 

It is required to check the joints and seams for gas tightness 
when using the venting system with a Category III or IV 
appliance.  

 
 

Do not exceed the maximum rated pressure for which the 
venting system is intended to be used. 

Note: Horizontally terminated systems must be pitched 
¼" per foot back toward the appliance being vented. 
Ensure any condensate is collected by strategically 
placing drains, or the appliance itself if permitted by the 
appliance manufacturer. 

 

Note: For vertically terminated systems it is 
recommended that longer horizontal runs be pitched ¼" 
per foot back toward the appliance being vented. 
Ensure any condensate is collected by strategically 
placing drains, or the appliance itself if permitted by the 
appliance manufacturer

 

VENTING ENVIRONMENT 

It is suggested that a vent being installed in a corrosive 
atmosphere be constructed of Type 304, 430 or 316 
stainless steel for the outer shell material. 

 

PART IDENTIFICATION 

These instructions and the catalog identify parts by name 
followed by a part code. Part numbers are made up of 
the model, part code, flue inside diameter and material 
code. The part number is shown on the UL label. 
EXAMPLE: The part number for a Model eVent (EVD), 47” 
long Straight Section (47S), 8” ID (08), with a AL 29‐4C 
stainless steel liner and an 430 stainless steel shell (R) 
would be EVD‐47S‐08R. eVent Series material codes are 
shown in the following chart: 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

CLEARANCES AND ENCLOSURES 

CAUTION – DO NOT PLACE ANY TYPE OF INSULATION OR 

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS IN THE REQUIRED 

CLEARANCE SPACES SURROUNDING THE VENT. 

 

This vent is to be installed unenclosed or with enclosures. 
If the vent passes through any zone or story of a building 
above that on which the connected appliance is located, 
it is to be enclosed in construction having a fire rating 
equal to or greater than that of the floor or roof 
assemblies through which it passes.
