Pre-Installation Requirements
Vent/Combustion Air Piping and Materials
The installation must conform to the requirements of
the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of
such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54, and/or Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1.
The PRESTIGE is certified per ANSI Z21.13 as a
Category IV (indoor air) or Direct Vent (sealed combus-
tion) appliance. A Category IV appliance utilizes uncon-
taminated indoor or outdoor air (surrounding the appli-
ance) for combustion. A Direct Vent appliance utilizes
uncontaminated outdoor air (piped directly to the appli-
ance) for combustion.
To reduce the potential risks associated with indoor
contaminates (listed on page 6), flammable vapors
and tight housing construction (little or no infiltra-
tion air), it is recommended to pipe uncontaminated
combustion air directly from the outdoors to the
appliance. This practice also promotes higher sys-
tem efficiency by reducing heated indoor air from
being exhausted from the building and replaced by
cold infiltration air.
The PRESTIGE requires a Category IV venting system
which is designed for pressurized venting and condensate.
The vent and combustion air materials (piping, fit-
tings and cement) must meet the listed require-
ments in this manual. Failure to comply with these
material requirements could result in severe per-
sonal injury, death or substantial property damage.

BEST PRACTICE
WARNING
PVC and CPVC Vent and Combustion Air Piping and
Fittings:
PVC Schedule 40 - ANSI/ASTM D1785
PVC-DWV - ANSI/ASTM D2665
CPVC Schedule 40 - ANSI/ASTM F441
PVC and CPVC Pipe Cement and Primer
PVC - ANSI/ASTM D2564
CPVC - ANSI/ASTM F493
For installations in Canada, all piping, fittings and
cement/primer material must be certified and listed
to ULC-S636. Ipex Inc. is an approved manufacturer
of ULC S636 vent components.
Use of cellular core PVC (ASTM F891) cellular core
CPVC, or Radel® (polyphenolsulfone) in venting
systems is prohibited. Cellular core pipe may be
used for combustion air piping.
DO NOT mix a PVC/CPVC vent system & components
with other vent system materials & components. Seal
all PVC and CPVC pipe and fittings with the appropri-
ate primer and cement. Failure to comply with this
requirement could cause the venting system to fail
resulting in leakage of flue products into the living
space.
