All pipe, fittings, primer and solvent cement must conform
with American National Standard Institute and the Ameri-
can Society for Testing and Materials (ANSI/ASTM) stan-
dards. The solvent shall be free flowing and contain no
lumps, undissolved particles or any foreign matter that ad-
versely affects the joint strength or chemical resistance of
the cement. The cement shall show no gelation, stratifica-
tion, or separation that cannot be removed by stirring. Re-
fer to TABLE 10 for approved piping and fitting materials.

ment meeting ASTM specifications, refer to TABLE 10.
F438
As an alternate, use all purpose cement, to bond ABS,
D2241
PVC, or CPVC pipe when using fittings and pipe made of
the same materials. Use transition solvent cement when
F442
bonding ABS to either
F628
PVC or CPVC.
D1527
Low temperature solvent cement is recommended during
D2468
cooler weather. Metal or plastic strapping may be used for
D2661
vent pipe hangers. Uniformly apply a liberal coat of PVC
primer for PVC or use a clean dry cloth for ABS to clean

inside socket surface of fitting and male end of pipe to
depth of fitting socket.

be certified to ULC S636 and supplied by a single manu-
D2564
facturer as part of an approved vent (exhaust) system. In
F493

IMPORTANT
Exhaust and intake connections are made of PVC.
Use PVC primer and solvent cement when using
PVC vent pipe. When using ABS vent pipe, use
transitional solvent cement to make connections to
the PVC fittings in the unit.
CAUTION
Solvent cements for plastic pipe are flammable
liquids and should be kept away from all sources of
ignition. Do not use excessive amounts of solvent
cement when making joints. Good ventilation
should be maintained to reduce fire hazard and to
minimize breathing of solvent vapors. Avoid contact
of cement with skin and eyes.
