How to fix solvent cement cure and cleanup before start-up: step by step

  1. Do not use excess cement or primer; it can pool inside the pipe.
  2. Let vent assemblies cure for at least 8 hours before powering the boiler.
  3. Make sure the exhaust pipe is beveled and fully seated in the flue adapter before insertion.
Safety: Gas, electrical and refrigerant work must be done by a licensed technician. Turn off power and gas before servicing, never bypass a safety control, and always follow the manufacturer's manual for your exact model.
