1.2. GAS VENT CATAGORIES

The AM Series is approved for a Category IV vent configuration as well as for sealed combustion
installations. Make provisions for combustion and ventilation air in accordance with Section 5.3, (Air
for Combustion and Ventilation) of the National Fuel Gas Code - ANSI Z223.1, or Sections 7.2, 7.3, or
7.4 of CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes, or applicable provisions of the local building codes.
Federal Codes have categorized gas appliances by the vented flue gas pressure and temperature:
•
Category I, being a gas appliance that operates with a non-positive vent (or natural drafted vent)
connector with a flue gas pressure and temperature at least 140°F (60°C) above its dew point.
•
Category II, being a gas appliance that operates with a non-positive vent (or natural drafted vent)
connector with a flue gas pressure and temperature less than 140°F (60°C) above its dew point.
Category III, being a gas appliance that operates with a positive vent (fan forced vent) connector
•
with a flue gas pressure and temperature at least 140°F (60°C) above its dew point.
Category IV, being a gas appliance that operates with a positive vent (fan forced vent) connector
•
with a flue gas pressure and temperature less than 140°F (60°C) above its dew point.
•
Direct Vent, a gas appliance is constructed and installed so that all air for combustion is derived
directly from the outdoors and all flue gases are discharged to the outdoors.

1.3. CERTIFIED VENTING MATERIALS FOR FLUE PIPE SYSTEMS

water pipes.
Do not use these vent pipe systems for incinerators of any kind.
Do not vent AM Series systems using the same vent piping as being used for other boiler types, such
as, but not limited to, Benchmark or Modulex boiler systems.
