D. Install Attic Insulation Shield

WARNING! Fire Risk. DO NOT allow loose materials or insulation to touch vent. Hearth & Home Technologies Inc. requires the use of an attic shield.

The National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 requires an attic shield constructed of 26 gauge minimum metal that extends at least 2 in. (51 mm) above insulation.

Attic shields must meet specified clearance and be se- cured in place.

Flat Ceiling Installation

• Remove one shield from box.

NOTICE: Cut previously installed batt insulation to make room for the attic insulation shield.

•

Wrap shield around pipe if pipe is already installed in

 

area to be insulated.

•

Match the three holes in each side and fasten with three

 

screws to form a tube.

•

Bend three tabs on the bottom of the shield outward to

 

allow attachment to the ceiling firestop.

•

Bend the remaining bottom tabs inward 90º to maintain

 

the air space between the pipe and the shield. Set the

 

shield on the ceiling firestop and attach to the firestop.
