Low Profile Side Wall Termination Kit
The IPEX Low Profile side wall termination kits are fully certified for use with IPEX product only. IPEX System 636 PVC Low
Profile vent kits are made from certified compound and IPEX System 1738 PVC Low Profile vent kits are made from a
UL1738 certified PVC compound. Both are rated to a maximum temperature of 149°F (65°C).
The vent termination must maintain all termination clearances and be installed in accordance with local building codes
and/or The National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (Latest Edition) or CGA/CAN B149 Installation Code (see Figure 24).
Each kit contains: 1 Base (two holes), 1 Cap (one hole), 8 Stainless Steel Screws, and 4 Plastic Anchors.

When locating the penetration of the vent and air pipe, ensure the termination is properly oriented as shown in
Figure 25 and ensure that it maintains minimum clearance requirements as shown in Figure 24. For multiple vent
terminations, ensure that a minimum clearance of 12 in (30 cm) is maintained between edge of air inlet and adjacent
vent outlet and that all vent pipes and air inlets terminate at the same height to avoid the recirculation of flue gases
and the possibility of causing severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage (see Figure 27).
When installing the vent termination in a vertical configuration, ensure the vent piping is located above the air inlet
piping. This will avoid the risk of flue gas products recirculating into the air inlet and building.
Installation Procedure
1.
Once the proper location has been determined, cut 2 holes in the wall large enough to accommodate the pipe. Pipe
diameters and distance between hole centers can be found in Table 5.
2.
Slide both the intake and vent pipe through the holes. Solvent weld both pipes to the base of the vent termination kit
(see Figure 24).
3.
To fasten the base to the wall, use the supplied screws and anchors. A 3/16 in (5 mm) diameter, 1/16-3/16 in (2-5
mm) deep hole will need to be drilled for the anchors. Locate the anchor hole by using the base as a template and
then drill the required holes.
4.
Screw the cap to the base using the supplied screws.
5.
Once the vent termination and pipes are secured, the wall penetrations will need to be sealed from the interior using a
PVC compatible material.
