10 Shrouds

A. Radiation Shield

Some shrouds require a radiation shield. Use where specified.

Radiation shield must be constructed of minimum 26 ga sheet metal.

B. Field Constructed Shrouds

Warning! Risk of Fire! Shrouds must be constructed as specified. Improper construction may overheat chase top.

Chase top shrouds may be field constructed where permitted by regional building codes.

NoTICE: Some regional codes require an agency-Listed shroud. Consult your local building officials.

Hearth & Home Technologies Inc. supplies UL listed shrouds. See your dealer for details.

The following field constructed shroud designs have been tested for Hearth Technologies fireplace systems and termination caps.

The shrouds must be constructed from a minimum .018 in. (26 ga) thick aluminized steel.
