Requirements for installation in Canada

1.Installations must be made with a vent pipe system certified to ULC-S636.

3.The components of the certified vent system must not be interchanged with other vent systems or unlisted pipe/fittings.

Installation & Operation Manual

Sizing

The SYNC boiler uses model specific combustion air intake and vent piping sizes as detailed in Table 2A below.

When determining equivalent combustion air and vent length, add 5 feet for each 90° elbow and 3 feet for each 45° elbow.

EXAMPLE: 20 feet of PVC pipe + (4) 90° elbows + (2) 45° elbows + (1) concentric vent kit (CVK3003) = 49 equivalent feet of piping.
