Special Venting Requirements for Installations in
Canada
Installation in Canada must conform to the requirements of CSA B149
code. Vent systems must be composed of pipe, fittings, cements, and
primers listed to ULC S636. The special vent fittings, accessory
concentric vent termination kits, and accessory external drain trap have
been certified to ULC S636 for use with those Royal Pipe and IPEX
PVC vent components which have been certified to this standard. In
Canada, the primer and cement must be of the same manufacturer as the
vent system – GVS-65 Primer (Purple) for Royal Pipe or IPEX System
636, PVC/CPVC Primer, Purple Violet for Flue Gas Venting and
GVS-65 PVC Solvent Cement for Royal Pipe or IPEX System 636(1)t,
PVC Cement for Flue Gas Venting, rated Class IIA, 65 deg C. must be
used with this venting system - do not mix primers and cements from
one manufacturer with a vent system from a different manufacturer.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions in the use of primer and cement
and never use primer or cement beyond its expiration date.
The safe operation, as defined by ULC S636, of the vent system is based
on following these installation instructions, the vent system
manufacturer’s installation instructions, and proper use of primer and
cement. All fire stop and roof flashing used with this system must be UL
listed material. Acceptability under Canadian standard CAN/CSA B149
is dependent upon full compliance with all installation instructions.
Under this standard, it is recommended that the vent system be checked
once a year by qualified service personnel.
The authority having jurisdiction (gas inspection authority, municipal
building department, fire department, etc) should be consulted before
installation to determine the need to obtain a permit.
