* Note: When using room air for combustion, use 90° elbow or tee for sidewall vent termination. Termination elbow part numbers: 2SVSTEX0390
(3 in.), 2SVSTEX0490 (4 in.). Termination tee part numbers: 2SVSTTX03 (3 in.), 2SVSTTX04 (4 in.), 2SVSTTX06 (6 in.).
See Z-Flex literature for other required component part numbers such as straight pipe, elbows, firestops, and vent supports.
b. Install CPVC/PP/SS vent connector. Follow
instructions in "2. Field Installation of CPVC/
PP/SS Vent Connector" under "B. CPVC/
PVC Venting."
c. Apply provided dielectric grease to gasket
inside vent connector that will be in contact
with adapter.
d. Push and twist adapter into vent system
connector until adapter bottoms out.
e. Tighten clamp to secure adapter in CPVC/
PP/SS vent connector.

WARNING
Asphyxiation Hazard.
Vent systems made by Heat Fab, M&G /
DuraVent and Z-Flex rely on gaskets for proper
sealing. When these vent systems are used, take
the following precautions:
Make sure that gasket is in position and
undamaged in the female end of the pipe.
Make sure that both the male and female
pipes are free of damage prior to assembly.
Only cut vent pipe as permitted by the
vent manufacturer in accordance with their
Instructions. When pipe is cut, cut end must be
square and carefully de-burred prior to
assembly.
a. Plan venting system to avoid possible
contact with plumbing or electrical wires.
Start at vent connector at boiler and work
towards vent termination.
b. Follow all manufacturer instructions and
warnings when preparing pipe ends for
joining and when assembling the vent/
combustion air system.

by the original stainless steel venting component
manufacturers, Heat Fab, M&G / DuraVent or
Z-Flex, whichever applicable.
c. On horizontal pipe sections, orient all
welded seams at the 12:00 position. Do
not place longitudinal welded seams at the
bottom of horizontal sections of vent pipe.
d. Assemble the combustion air system using

If PVC piping is used, use PVC
cement to assemble the PVC intake
system components. See "B. CPVC/
PVC Venting" for combustion air pipe
installation instructions.
If galvanized piping is used, use at least
two sheet metal screws per joint. Seal
outside of all joints.
