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.
