Title: 636 ipex
Post by: deep on May 12, 2022, 11:15:34 AM
Hey guys
I have a quick question. What position can you install a two to three inch 646 ipex reducer. And is there any documentation of this?

The IPEX manual allows using a reducer on the horizontal venting termination to increase the velocity.  Otherwise I would refer to the appliance installation manual.

It's good practice to only use a reducer on vertical venting otherwise on horizontal venting it could collect water and cause problems.
