This specialized 90-degree long turn elbow is engineered exclusively for high-temperature gas venting applications, serving as an essential component in gas-fired furnace and water heater exhaust networks. Constructed from premium CPVC material, this fitting is fully certified to ULC S636 standards, enabling safe management of combustion byproducts across residential and light commercial mechanical rooms.
Classified as a Type BH Class IIB flue gas vent component, the elbow features a dual hub-to-hub connection profile that creates robust solvent-welded joints when combined with approved primers and cements. The long turn sweep configuration is intentionally engineered to minimize friction losses and optimize flue gas velocity, preventing excessive backpressure within the system.
Before proceeding with your system assembly, ensure that a 2-inch nominal pipe sizing aligns with the appliance manufacturer's official submittal drawings and venting specifications. Installers must follow certified installation instructions, ensuring appropriate slope guidelines and support hanger intervals are strictly maintained to facilitate proper condensate drainage and structural stability over the pipeline's lifespan.
