NOTICE
The instructions for the installation of the venting
system shall specify that the horizontal portions of
the venting system shall be supported to prevent
sagging; the methods of and intervals for support
shallbespecied.Theseinstructionsshallalso
specify that the venting system:
Category I, II and IV boilers must be installed so
that horizontal sections have a slope of at least ¼
inch per foot (21 mm/m) to prevent accumulation of
condensate; and
For Category II and IV boilers, where necessary,
have means provided for drainage of condensate.

INSTALLATIONS IN CANADA require the use
of venting material certied to ULCS636. All Gas
vents connected to the Brute LX, plastic, stainless
steel or otherwise must be certied to this ULC
standard. Appropriate selection of vent material is
very important for proper performance and safe
operation of the Brute LX.
The ue temperature of the Brute LX changes
dramatically with changes in operating water
temperature. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the
application of the boiler to determine the required
certied vent class. If the Brute LX is installed in
an application where the outlet water temperature
exceeds 145°F, and/or installed in a closet, class
IIB or higher vent material is required. If the
system temperatures are unknown at the time of
installation, class IIB or higher venting material is
recommended.
IN CANADA all venting used must meet the
following requirements:
1. ULC-S636 certied and marked
2. The rst 3 feet of venting must be accessible for
visual inspection.
3. All components used in the vent system must be
from a certied manufacturer.
4 . Vent system components must not be mixed
with alternate manufacturers certied
components and/or unlisted components.
5 . The venting must be installed according to the
vent manufacturers installation instructions.
The unit’s vent can terminate through the roof, or
through an outside wall.
See Table 4 to select the appropriate vent pipe
diameter. Vent pipe must pitch upward, toward the vent
terminal, not less than 1/4" per foot, so that condensate
will run back to the Brute LX to drain. Route vent pipe
to the heater as directly as possible. Seal all joints and
provide adequate hangers as required in the venting
system manufacturer’s Installation Instructions.
Horizontal portions of the venting system must be
supported to prevent sagging and may not have any
low sections that could trap condensate. The unit must
not support the weight of the vent pipe.
