Suggested Materials

PVC CEMENT
- Weld On P-70-C (Primer)
- Weld On 705 (Rigid PVC Cement)
- Weld On 795 (Flexible PVC Cement)

CAUTION: Do not use old PVC pipe cement or primer as poor weld joints could occur.
Do not use rigid pipe cement on flexible PVC pipe as poor weld joints could occur.

PVC
- 50 feet of flexible1 1/2” or 2” PVC pipe (for use in the attic)
- 60 feet of 1 1/2” rigid PVC pipe (supplied in 8 or 10 foot lengths)
- 10 feet of 2” rigid PVC pipe (for ease of valve installations)
- (2) PVC Unions (to be used with the PCS1 inlet and outlet manifolds)
- Check Valve (for use on PCS1 return line at support system)
- PVC pipe 90º Elbows, 2”- 1 1/2” Reducing Bushings, Straight SXS Couplings, etc.
- Emery cloth (for roughing up PVC pipe surface area prior to priming & cementing)

NOTE: Flex PVC doescome in 2 inch or 1 1/2-inch size. Actual length of pipe needs
will depend on each individual installation. Also PVC pipe fittings such as reducing bushings,
tees, 45º elbows, 90º elbows and straight couplings will be required. These fittings are supplied as
either SXS, which means slip [cement-type] fittings on each end or in combinations with nominal
pipe threads at either or both ends [male or female pipe threads].

OTHER MATERIALS
- 220 vac 20 amp Outlet & Box: Leviton #5821 or equivalent[PCS1 simply plugs in]
- 22 gauge wire for attic thermistor [temperature sensor]
- Silicone Sealant (for use on PCS1 manifold pipe threads)
- misc electrical materials
- misc plumbing materials
- misc construction materials (hinges, etc.)

NOTE:Actual materials to be used on a particular installation depend upon the installation
site and the choices made between various material options. These choices are sometimes dictated
by local codes. For example, copper pipe is required for use within the attic in some California
communities.
