Bosch Greentherm 9000 series venting options

Global Pro Tankless Supply is now carrying the Bosch Greentherm 9000 series condensing tankless water heaters.  The new 9000 series heaters can be vented with PVC, CPVC, PP and also ABS-DWV.  The maximum flue temperature is limited to 145 degrees.  Global Protankless Supply is a Z-Flex distributor and we carry the Polypropylene venting and PP venting kits for vertical and horizontal installations.  There is a 1' minimum on the venting.  An external condensate drain T is not required as the heater has a down fired heat exchanger.  There is a condensate drain on the bottom of the heater and needs to be drained in accordance with the installation manual and per local codes.

Below are different options for venting the 9000 series tankless:

1.  Single exhaust vent going vertical or horizontal and intake air taken from the room installed.  This option is for warm climate areas where there is not a problem with cold air coming back down through the exhaust vent.
2.  Twin pipe exhaust and intake for vertical or horizontal installation.  It is recommended that the intake and exhaust be terminated out the same sidewall or roof area.
3.  Concentric vent termination using 3" PVC concentric vent system #196016.  This concentric vent system can be used for horizontal or vertical termination.  All other 3" PVC pictured is sold separately.
4.  Vertical venting system into a chimney using flexible PP.  Please note that the maximum length for the flexible PP is greatly reduced by 60%.  Example: 10 feet of flex PP is equivalent to 25 feet of rigid PP.
5.  Horizontal venting using the Z-Flex Z-Dens 2" Concentric Horizontal Kit (2ZDHK2).  The Z-Flex Z-Dens 2" Concentric Horizontal Kit 2ZDHK2 comes with a concentric termination horizontal, adaptor collinear to concentric, 2 locking clamps & 2 Adaptors CPVC / PVC Coupling to PP.  The Z-Dens 2"/4" Concentric Horizontal Vent Kit (2ZDHK2) is also available in 3"/4" (2ZDHK3) and 4"/6" (2ZDHK4).
6.  Vertical venting using the Z-Flex Z-Dens 2" Concentric Vertical Kit (2ZDVK2).  The Z-Flex Z-Dens 2" Concentric Vertical Kit 2ZDVK2 comes with a concentric termination vertical, adaptor collinear to concentric, 2 locking clamps & 2 Adaptors CPVC / PVC Coupling to PP.  The Z-Dens 2"/4" Concentric Vertical Vent Kit (2ZDVK2) is also available in 3"/4" (2ZDVK3) and 4"/6" (2ZDVK4).
The Z-Flex Z-Dens 2"/4" horizontal and vertical vent kits work well with the New Bosch Greentherm 9000 series gas tankless water heaters.  Please see the models listed below that work for the venting kits.

Z-Flex Z-DENS Polypropylene Rigged & Flexible Venting Material

Global Protankless Supply is pleased to announce we are now carrying the Z-Flex, Z-DENS polypropylene venting.  Polypropylene (PP) is comprised of only 2 elements carbon & hydrogen and is made without the use of any toxic or carcinogenic materials, heavy metals or chlorides. PP has a higher maximum flue gas temperature limit (230°F) as compared to PVC (149°F) & CPVC
(194°F). PP is easily 100% recyclable where PVC & CPVC is not due to its chemical composition and various additives. Recent developments in flue systems for use with high efficiency heating appliances, combined with the increased familiarity of use and installer confidence in polypropylene venting systems, has led to the development and continuous improvement of the polypropylene Z-DENS system.
Designed and Tested Safe
Unlike most PVC and CPVC pipe:


  • Z-DENS is specifically designed, tested and listed as a vent system. 
  • Z-DENS is manufactured from environmentally safe and sustainable fire retardant polypropylene, offering superior performance. 
  • Z-DENS does not require explosive or toxic cleaners, primers or cements; eliminating the safety and health concerns associated with these products. 
  • Z-DENS Self-Sealing design does not require any curing time, significantly reducing installation times and allows immediate system start up
  • Z-DENS can be used to vent appliances in New York City where PVC is NOT PERMITTED.


  • Z-DENS is available in diameters 2” (60 mm), 3” (80 mm), 4” (110 mm), 5” (125 mm), 6” (160 mm) and 8” (200 mm). Z-DENS is also fully compatible with Z-DENS FLEXIBLE and Z-DENS CONCENTRIC making for a complete and safe flue gas system.
