DuraVent PolyPro VSM Adapter: joins another maker’s polypropylene vent to 4 inch PolyPro
The DuraVent PolyPro VSM Adapter is a vent adapter for connecting another maker’s polypropylene pipe to PolyPro. It bridges the difference between that pipe’s 110 mm size and DuraVent’s 100 mm, or 4 inch, PolyPro. PolyPro is DuraVent’s polypropylene vent pipe for high efficiency condensing gas boilers, furnaces, and water heaters. DuraVent names this adapter in its approvals for some Viessmann Vitodens 100-W and 200-W wall hung boilers. That does not mean it fits every version of those boilers. The adapter connector is sold separately.
The PolyPro portion of the vent must use DuraVent PolyPro parts and joining methods. Connections to another brand’s polypropylene, PVC, or metal vent need the DuraVent adapter made for that connection. A plastic vent passing through a fire rated wall or floor also needs approved protection against fire spreading through the opening. Need the separate clamp? See the DuraVent PolyPro Universal PVC Adapter Connector clamp. The DuraVent PolyPro VSM Adapter ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
