Concentric Vent Termination Kit for Condensing Furnaces
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. This
concentric vent termination kit has been certified to ULC
S636 for use vent components which have been certified
to this standard. The primer and cement must be of the
same manufacturer as the vent 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 and this termination kit is based on following these
installation instructions, the vent system manufacturer’s
installation instructions, and proper use of primer and
cement. Acceptability under Canadian standard 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.

in U.S.A. or 18 inches in Canada). If the assembly is
too short to meet the height requirement, the 2 pipes
supplied in the kit may be replaced by using the same
diameter, field supplied SDR-26 PVC (D2241) pipe.
Do not expand dimension "D" more than 60 inches.
See Figure 3.
WARNING:
Do not operate the furnace with rain cap removed.
Recirculation of combustion products may
occur, or water may accumulate inside larger
combustion air pipe and flow into the burner
enclosure. Failure to follow this warning could
result in product damage or improper operation,
personal injury or death.
