Installation & Operation Manual

Requirements for installation in

Canada

1. Installations must be made with a vent pipe system

certified to ULC-S636.

IPEX is an approved vent manufacturer in Canada

supplying vent material listed to ULC-S636.

2. The first three (3) feet of plastic vent pipe from the

appliance flue outlet must be readily accessible for visual

inspection.

3. The components of the certified vent system must not be

interchanged with other vent systems or unlisted

pipe/fittings.

4. The 2" and 3" Concentric Vent Kits available from

Lochinvar (see Section 4 – Sidewall Termination – Optional

Concentric

Vent) and the 2" and 3" Concentric Vent Kits

available from IPEX are approved for use on the Knight

wall mount boiler. Both kits are listed to the ULC-S636

standard for use in Canada.

Minimum / Maximum allowable

combustion air and vent piping lengths

are as follows:

Combustion Air = 12 equivalent feet minimum / 100
equivalent feet maximum

Vent = 12 equivalent feet minimum / 100 equivalent feet
maximum

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.

The appliance output rating will reduce
by up to 1.5% for each 25 feet of vent
length.
