Aciq CVENT-3 Concentric Vent Kit 3 Inch Pvc

Product Description

The ACIQ CVENT-3 is a 3-inch PVC concentric vent kit designed for use with residential Category IV gas furnace installations. It combines the combustion air intake and exhaust vent into a single penetration point, allowing both pipes to pass through one roof or sidewall opening. This design serves as a code-acceptable alternative to the standard two-pipe intake and exhaust configuration. Licensed HVAC technicians install this kit during new furnace commissioning or when retrofitting an existing venting system to a concentric outlet. The 3-inch diameter matches systems requiring 3-inch intake and vent piping.

This concentric vent kit is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a single roof or sidewall penetration is preferred over separate intake and exhaust openings. It is applicable to Category IV condensing gas furnace systems that use 3-inch PVC vent piping. Installers should consult the furnace installation instructions for intake and vent pipe sizing requirements before proceeding. Note that using this kit reduces the allowable intake and vent piping length by 5 feet compared to the maximum length listed in the standard furnace installation instructions. Plan total pipe runs accordingly before installation.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Category IV condensing gas furnaces equipped with 3-inch intake and vent systems. Consult the furnace installation instructions for specific pipe sizing and run-length requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician in accordance with the furnace manufacturer's installation instructions and applicable local mechanical codes. Shut down and disconnect power to the furnace before beginning any venting work. Do not use this concentric vent kit with any furnace category other than Category IV.
