Pipe & Fittings Specications
All pipe, ttings, 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 owing and contain no
lumps, undissolved particles or any foreign matter that
adversely aects the joint strength or chemical resistance
of the cement. The cement shall show no gelation, strati-
cation, or separation that cannot be removed by stirring.
Refer to the TABLE 2 below for approved piping and tting
materials

CAUTION
Solvent cements for plastic pipe are ammable 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 re hazard and to minimize breathing of solvent
vapors. Avoid contact of cement with skin and eyes.
IMPORTANT
ML193UHE 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 ttings in the unit.
Use PVC primer and solvent cement or ABS solvent ce-
ment meeting ASTM specications, refer to TABLE 2.
As an alternate, use all purpose cement, to bond ABS,
PVC, or CPVC pipe when using ttings and pipe made of
the same materials. Use transition solvent cement when
bonding ABS to either PVC or CPVC.
Low temperature solvent cement is recommended during
cooler weather. Metal or plastic strapping may be used for
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 tting and male end of pipe to
depth of tting socket.
Canadian Applications Only - Pipe, ttings, primer and
solvent cement used to vent (exhaust) this appliance must
be certied to ULC S636 and supplied by a single manu-
facturer as part of an approved vent (exhaust) system. In
addition, the rst three feet of vent pipe from the furnace
ue collar must be accessible for inspection.
