Yes SnapRabbit™ is listed to ULC-S636 for Type BH venting Class A, B and C in Canada in accordance with B149.1.

Yes. The codes in the US require a vent system be approved by the appliance manufacturer. For a complete list of SnapRabbit™ approved appliances ask your local ECCO Manufacturing Sales Representative or download the ‘Appliance List’ shown on this page. 

• Cut the rigid wall components with a miter box or chop saw ensure a square cut and then deburr to ensure any sharp edges will not cut the gasket. 
• Cut the flex components using a utility/carpet knife. Insert a blade into the groove at the desired length of the flex pipe and cut around for a clean finish. 

230°F or 110°C

The elbows are designed to give horizontal runs a 3° pitch. The condensing appliances SnapRabbit™ vents can generate up to 50 gallons of condensate per hour. The 3° pitch assures condensates flow out of the system rather than creating backpressure in the vent which may cause appliance shutdowns.

• Contractors enjoy the speed with which SnapRabbit™ can be installed, reducing installation times by as much as 75%.
  
• Engineers, homeowners and contractors appreciate the elimination of VOCs, fumes and mess created by primers and solvents in solvent welded systems. 
• 
  Homeowners appreciate the fast installation that allows them to use their system immediately, rather than waiting for the contractor to return after the joint has cured. 
• Gasketed systems allow for movement flexibility which reduces creaking due to expansion and contraction.
  
• Contractors can install without dry fitting or concerns with elbow direction since SnapRabbit™ can be rotated, installed, removed and adjusted as needed.
  
• The gasket sealed joints expand and contract with weather changes and system heat up, so the vent does not flex or crack. 

Locking Clamps are required on all joints in accordance with ULC-S636 certification. 

Yes. Follow the surface preparation requirements of the paint manufacturer.

The manufacturers of SnapRabbit™ have learned from metal vent manufacturers who’ve had gaskets destroyed by salts and acids in condensates. By having a greater pitch, it assures the condensates do not come in contact with the gaskets.

No, there are limitations to how SnapRabbit™ Flex can be used. To prevent condensate pooling it must be run vertically and installed in a chase to meet ULC-S636 requirements. 

• – Masonry or Prefab Metal Chimneys 
• – B-Vent 
• – Gypsum or Sheet Rock walls 

• When in B-vent, L-vent and chimney installs, spacers are required every 6 feet. 
• When in a gypsum or sheetrock chase, proper shielding is required, per code, to protect piercing the pipe with nails, screws or other sharp objects.

SnapRabbit™ Flex easily navigates around offsets under 45°. This makes SnapRabbit™ Flex an ideal solution for relining B-vent or Chimneys with one or more offsets. 

Yes. They can be bundled and have spacers installed or run individually with spacers.

No, SnapRabbit™ vents must be the only thing in the chase. It is acceptable to have adjacent but separate flues built into the same stack configuration, so long as the temperature in the SnapRabbit™ chase stays below 300°F.
