Products SYSTEM 636™ Flue Gas Venting

The use of plastic venting systems on gas fired water heaters, furnaces and boilers is undergoing a significant change. In the summer of 2006 the CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code was amended to require all plastic venting materials to be certified to ULC S636. The code change is effective January 1, 2007.

Provincial regulators from across Canada changed the B149.1 Code to make certain that all plastic vent systems are certified to a recognized standard.

So, what certified plastic vent materials are available?

That’s where IPEX can help, with our new certified System 636 flue gas venting systems. Only IPEX offers complete certified systems of pipes, fittings and cements meeting the stringent demands of the ULC S636 venting standard. All with the quality, performance and support you’ve come to expect from IPEX.

One code change, two certified solutions

We offer System 636 in two distinct materials, each with a unique temperature rating. These venting systems are approved as Type BH vents and are designed for negative or positive pressure venting of gas-fired appliances:

Register and complete our PVC & CPVC on-line solvent cementing refresher course and ensure you are making the proper connection. We'll even send you a certificate of completion.






Orange warning labels on pipe and fittings are required by ULC S636 and clearly distinguish a certified gas venting system from every day, non-certified plumbing pipe. Look for the orange label and the mark of a recognized certification agency as assurance the system you’re using is approved.
