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.
