2 Drainage Systems Installation Guide
INTRODUCTION
System 15

& System XFR

by IPEX are two compatible
product lines designed for use in Drain, Waste and Vent (DWV)
applications for buildings designated as combustible or
noncombustible construction.
While both thermoplastic systems meet the demanding
Flame-Spread requirements for noncombustible construction,
System XFR also meets the Smoke-Developed Classification
requirements for installation in high-rise buildings and air
plenum spaces.
This installation guide describes design and usage of these
DWV systems. Information presented here is intended to
supplement basic knowledge of DWV systems. Should
designers or contractors require additional information or
clarification, please refer to Volume I: Drainage Systems for
Noncombustible Construction from IPEX (www.ipexinc.com).
System 15

IPEXs complete line of System 15 DWV pipe and fittings has been
engineered to safely endure years of reliable usage. System 15 is
certified to CSA B181.2 and meets the requirements of National
and Provincial Plumbing Codes.
System 15 pipe and fittings are listed to CAN/ULC S102.2-10
and exhibit a Flame Spread Rating of 15 which meets the NBC
Flame Spread Rating limit of 25 for combustible DWV piping
in noncombustible construction.
System XFR

System XFR DWV also is certified to CSA B181.2 and is listed

to CAN/ULC S102.2-10 to exhibit a Flame Spread Rating of
not greater than 25 and a Smoke Developed Classification of
not greater than 50. Having this makes System XFR
permissible for use in High Rise Buildings (as defined in NBC
section 3.2.6) and Air Plenums (section 3.6.4.3).
MJ Grey Couplings
MJ Grey couplings are a mechanical joint assembly suitable for
use on IPEX System 15 or System XFR DWV piping sizes 8"
through 12" only. Although the couplings are certified to CSA
B602, they are intended for use on IPEX System 15 or System
XFR only. MJ Grey also carries a listing to CAN/ULC S102.2-10
to demonstrate a Flame/Smoke listing not exceeding 25/50,
similar to that of System XFR and thus is permitted in most areas
of noncombustible construction including High Rise and Plenums.
Visual ID
From a distance, there
are some differences in
appearance between
System 15 and System
XFR to help with their
identification.
The photos below show the position of one of two labels on
System XFR fittings and a close-up of information printed on
the label.
MJ Grey couplings can be easily differentiated from standard
cast iron couplings by noting that the rubber interior sleeve is
grey in colour (versus the traditional black colour) and exterior
identification labels showing the System XFR trade name and
the Flame and Smoke values as per ULC S102.2.

TEMPERATURE CONSIDERATIONS
For continuous flow non-pressure applications, System 15 and
System XFR can be safely used up to 140F (60C) and 180F
(82C) for intermittent flow.
THERMAL EXPANSION
IN SYSTEM 15 / XFR
Installers should always consider the effects of thermal
expansion and contraction when designing or installing a DWV
system.
Below is a table of expansion values applicable to both System
15 and System XFR. The expansion in inches is shown for
numerous temperature changes (T) versus various straight-
length runs of pipe.
Expansion is most commonly accommodated by CSA certified
rubber couplings installed every second floor for vertical pipe
runs or at appropriate intervals for long horizontal runs. Piston-
style expansion joints are available up to 4" diameter for
vertical piping. It is worthy to note that System 15 and System
XFR due to the inherent properties of PVC would have a much
lower (40%) rate of expansion-contraction than another
commonly used plastic DWV pipe - ABS.

ADDRESSING MOVEMENT
IN A WOOD FRAMED BUILDING
In the case of wood-framed construction, building settlement
and shrinkage can be more significant than thermal expansion
or contraction. Wood shrinkage can be as high as 3/4" (20mm)
per floor depending on moisture content and height of the
wood framing. Building shrinkage is not considered significant
for piping design in noncombustible (i.e. steel/concrete)
structures.
The following installation recommendations for this example
are based on years of experience and have proven successful in
most installations:
Install a rubber coupling, MJ Grey or CSA-certified
expansion joint at every second floor of the building.
Rigidly support the stack pipe on alternating floors to
direct any movement into the appropriate expansion
compensator.
Installation will segment the pipeline and thus limit its overall
movement.
The illustration, Addressing Movement in a DWV Stack
indicates the proper location for the devices to be installed.
Using this method of installation will limit movement between
any two floors of the building. If you require additional
information, please contact IPEX.
Follow IPEX installation instructions for proper installation of
expansion joints in either the horizontal or vertical position.
Always check with the local authority having jurisdiction for
approval prior to installation of the DWV system.
For more specific details regarding expansion and contraction,
please refer to Volume I: Drainage Systems for Noncombustible
Construction, available from IPEX.

MJ GREY J OINT DEFLECTION
The MJ Grey coupling may be used to accommodate small
changes in alignment up to 1.5 in any direction.
Below are the offset distances resulting from a deflection limit
of 1.5 degrees:
SUPPORT SPACING
Support of pipe and placement of hangers must adhere to the
requirements of the National Plumbing Code of Canada or the
local plumbing Authority Having J urisdiction. Specifically, the
NBC calls for a minimum support spacing of 1.2m (4ft) for
horizontal pipe runs of all sizes. However, local authorities may
be receptive to increased spacing of hangers if supported by
engineering analysis.
Consider the following guidelines when installing a
DWV system:
1. Allow the pipe to move freely within the hangers. Do not
tighten the hangers so that the pipe is compressed,
distorted or bent. Since thermoplastic pipe expands and
contracts approximately three times that of steel,
hangers should not be of the type that will restrict this
movement.

2. Use strap-type metal hangers or equivalent that are free
of rough edges and burrs, and have a broad support
base. Hangers should provide as much bearing surface
as possible. Sharp supports or sharp edges on supports
should not be used with these materials since they will
cause mechanical damage if the pipe moves.
3. Avoid placing System 15 / XFR lines alongside steam or
other high temperature pipelines.
4. Refer to the support spacing chart and fluid correction
factors for recommended support locations.

MJ Grey Support Spacing
Horizontal: All MJ Grey coupling installations should be
supported on each side (both the pipe and fitting side) to a
maximum distance of 12 (305mm) away from the coupling,
and in accordance local building codes.
Vertical: Regular vertical support methods for solvent weld
System 15 or System XFR may be employed.
Restraints: Fully restraining fittings that will be exposed to high
thrust forces may be required. Consult the project engineer.

VERTICAL SERVICE SPACES
When using System 15 or System XFR, contractors and
designers must be aware that National and Provincial Building
Codes restrict the use of these products in vertical service
spaces.
A vertical service space is an open area that is intended to
accommodate a number of building services such as
mechanical, electrical and communication systems. A vertical
service space generally runs from the basement of a building
through to the top of the building, much like an elevator shaft
or garbage chute. As an area that is completely open from the
bottom to the top of the building, it offers no opportunity to
properly firestop the combustible piping system at each floor
as required by Code.
Distinct from a vertical service space, a chase is a designated
area that also runs vertically through the building from bottom
to top. This designated area may be a vertical wall assembly or
other area designated to accommodate building services.
In a chase, specific holes are drilled through the horizontal
fire separations to accommodate each individual service,
allowing proper fire stopping materials to be used as the
service penetrates each separation. By firestopping at each
level through the building, the integrity of the fire separations
are maintained and the building remains compartmentalized.
12 Drainage Systems Installation Guide
HANDLING AND STORAGE
System 15 and System XFR are strong, lightweight piping
materials and, as such, are easily handled. However, installers
are advised to adhere to the guidelines below to maintain
safety and avoid damaging the pipe.
CAUTION
As is common for most rigid piping materials, impact strength
for System 15 and XFR is reduced in colder weather. Thus,
when unloading these components in cold weather, take extra
care to minimize impact damage. Since the soundness of any
joint depends on the condition of the pipe end, exercise care
during storage and handling to avoid damaging these ends.
While in transit, make sure pipe and fittings are well-secured,
so there is no potential for a load to shift.
When storing System 15 and System XFR pipe, bear the
following points in mind:
Treat these products as you would other DWV piping
products: take care during handling and storage to
prevent damaging the pipe.
Store System 15 and System XFR pipe on a level
surface. If placed on the ground, make sure the pipe is
supported by timbers spaced no more than 3 feet apart.
When storing pipe on a flat smooth surface place smaller
diameter pipe on top of larger pipe.
Make sure the pipe is not stored close to sources of heat
such as boilers, steam lines, engine exhaust outlets, etc.
Use a forklift to unload System15 and SystemXFR crates
directly fromthe delivery vehicle. Avoid using wire ropes,
chains or slings. Failure to properly handle crates may
cause injury.

SOLVENT CEMENT
Only high quality IPEX System 15/XFR cements and primers
are recommended for use with System 15 or System XFR DWV
piping.
This product offering includes One-Step (i.e. no primer
required) in both Medium Bodied and Heavy Bodied, as well as
Two-Step formulations, all of which are grey in color. Our
System 15 / XFR cement products are CSA certified.

CEMENTING SYSTEM 15/XFR
Below are some general guidelines to help achieve proper
solvent-welded joints for System 15 and System XFR PVC
piping systems:
1. Cut pipe squarely and remove all burrs on pipe end,
also bevel front edge of pipe slightly;
2. Select proper applicator for pipe size;
3. Ensure surfaces to be cemented are clean and dry;
4. Attempt to dry fit the assembly to ensure an interference
fit occurs at an insertion depth between 1/4 and 3/4 of
the socket depth. Should the fit be tighter or looser than
this, contact and consult IPEX before proceeding.
5. Apply a generous amount of cement (and primer
beforehand if required) to pipe exterior and socket
interior;
6. Assemble pipe into socket and hold for 5-10 seconds;
7. Wipe away excess cement;
8. Observe initial set and cure times in tables below
according to pipe size, ambient temperature and
humidity level.

MJ GREY ASSEMBLY
MJ Grey is intended for use only on IPEX System 15 or System
XFR DWV pipe or spigot end fittings.
General Instructions
1) Loosen the exterior band as much as possible without
removing the straps from the screw housing.
2) Mark insertion depth on both spigots/pipe 3"
from pipe end.
3) Slide the MJ Grey coupling over one end of the spigot
ends to be joined. Slide until contact is made with the
spigot end and centre stop on the inner surface of the
rubber sleeve.
4) Fit the second pipe end into the open end of the MJ
Grey coupling, to the depth of the insertion line.
5) Tighten all screws to a torque of 80 in-lbs. Best results
will be had if tightening middle screws and working
progressively outwards towards the end of the coupling.
After each screw has been torqued once, re-torque each
screw to ensure they did not loosen during the first pass.
A calibrated torque wrench is available for purchase
from IPEX.
6) Important: If a screw is over-torqued it may be stripped.
If this occurs the coupling should be replaced.
NOTES:
1. If working in a confined space, it is recommended to do partial
tightening of the inserted end before inserting the second spigot.
2. DO NOT use any lubricants of any kind to aid in the assembly of
MJ Grey couplings.
3. Pipe ends must be cut squarely, should have all sharp edges
removed and be clean prior to assembly.
4. No chamfering of the pipe end is required.
5. When there is a temperature variation between the time of
installation and testing, joint tightness must be rechecked
prior to testing using a torque wrench calibrated to 80 in-lbs.

TESTING DRAINAGE SYSTEMS
After a system is installed and all solvent weld joints cured, the
system should be pressure-tested with water before being
commissioned. The test should be conducted in accordance
with requirements of the local plumbing code. When pressure
testing, the system should be slowly filled with water and all
air bled from the highest and farthest points in the installation.
Once the system has reached the desired test pressure it
should remain at this pressure for one hour.
Solvent weld systems may be pressure-tested with water at
levels higher than code requirements if desired by the project
design engineer. Contact IPEX for details.
During this time the assembled sections should be visually
inspected for joint leaks that may have occurred in the system.
If a leak is discovered at a solvent weld joint, the joint must be
removed and replaced or alternatively may be back-welded in
place by a worker certified or experienced in thermoplastic
welding. It is not necessary to fully drain the system if the
affected fitting can be isolated for the required work.
As a quick check before water testing as per Code
requirements, IPEX DWV may be tested with air at pressures no
greater than 5 psi. Testing with air at higher pressures is
STRICTLY PROHIBITED as it may create a hazardous work
environment and endanger nearby workers.
Take special care to avoid causing impact to the piping when
testing rigid thermoplastic systems using compressed air. Impact
to the systemduring air testing can cause failure which may
result in injury or death. Conduct this test only when the ambient
temperature is 10C (50F) or above. Pipe should never be
pressurized to any more than 5 psi when using air.
Normal testing procedures for System15 or SystemXFR may be
employed if using MJ Grey couplings. Maximumwater or air test
pressure shall be 10 feet of head or 4.3 psi for all sizes.
Proper safety precautions and protective equipment should be
employed during all testing procedures.
