sch 40 has nothing to do with pressure. Sch 40 is the thickness of the pipe.

For combustions all really need to do is make sure it doesn't say "Cellular Core" on the pipe.

NSF-PW = "Potable Water" and is pressure rated.
NSF-DWV = "Drain, Waste, Vent" and is sometimes pressure rated.

It's only pressure rated if it has a pressure rating printed on the pipe.

Sch. 40 is the size and has nothing to do with the pressure rating of the particular pipe.
