PVC VENT FITTING MATERIAL
These fittings are available from your Gas Furnace
Distributors.
Straight Pipe Sections, Couplings, 45° Elbows, 60° El-
bows, 90° Elbows, Vent or Sanitary Tee, or other neces-
sary fittings may be 2", 2½", 3", or 4" diameter. The al-
lowable materials are shown in Table 10.
VENT FITTING MATERIAL – PLASTIC
Gas and liquid tight single wall vent fittings, designed
for resistance to corrosive flue condensate, MUST be
used throughout.
Listed in Table 10 are 2", 2½", 3", and 4" size fittings that
meet these requirements. The materials listed are vari-
ous grades of PVC and ABS plastic.
PIPE JOINTS: All joints must be fastened and sealed to
prevent escape of combustion products into the build-
ing.
NOTE:
It is recommended that the first joints from the furnace
be connected and sealed with high temperature RTV.
This will enable the pipes to be removed later without
cutting.
Be sure to properly support these joints.
BONDING OF PVC
Commercially available solvent cement must be used to
join the pipe and fittings. Follow instructions on the
container carefully.
Procedure for Cementing Joints:
1. Cut pipe square, remove ragged edges and burrs.
Chamfer end of pipe, then clean fitting socket and
pipe joint area of all dirt, grease, moisture or chips.

2. After checking pipe and socket for proper fit, wipe
socket and pipe with cleaner-primer. Apply a liberal
coat of primer to inside surface of socket and out-
side of pipe.
DO NOT ALLOW PRIMER TO DRY BEFORE AP-
PLYING CEMENT.
3. Apply a thin coat of cement evenly in the socket.
Quickly apply a heavy coat of cement to the pipe
end and insert pipe into fitting with a slight twisting
movement until it bottoms out.
4. Hold the pipe in the fitting for 30 seconds to pre-
vent tapered socket from pushing the pipe out of
the fitting.
5. Wipe all excess cement from the joint with a rag.
Allow 15 minutes before handling. Cure time varies
according to fit, temperature and humidity.
NOTE:
Follow venting instructions carefully when using PVC
cement.
IMPORTANT:
All joints must be water tight. Flue condensate is some-
what acidic, and leaks can cause equipment damage.
Connection of the pipe and collar of the
combustion
air inlet
should just be a friction fit. It is recommended
that the inlet air joint be sealed with RTV type sealant
to allow the joint to be separated for possible future ser-
vice. The inlet and vent pipes must be properly sup-
ported throughout the entire length.
