!WARNING: INSTALLATION OF THIS FIRE- PLACE REQUIRES THE USE OF HEAT
SHIELD
To Install the Heat Shield:
1.Determine if the heat shield is required. Do so by mea- suring the vertical distance between the top horizontal surface of the elbow to any combustible surface above. If the distance is more than 4 inches, the heat shield is NOT required. If it is 4 inches or less, the heat shield IS REQUIRED. Install per the following steps. See Figure 11.
2.Fasten the shield in place using the four pilot holes pro- vided in the part. The shield should be oriented such that the 13 1/8 inch dimension (longest dimension) is run- ning in the same direction the elbow is pointing. The shield should be centered directly above the elbow, and positioned so that it creates a 1/2 inch airspace between the shield and the combustible surface. See Figure 12.
Refer to Cinch Pipe and Termination Cap installation in- structions.
•Continue adding vent components, locking each succeed- ing component into place.
•Ensure that each succeeding vent component is secure- ly fitted and locked into the preceding component in the vent system.
•90° elbows may be installed and rotated to any point around the preceding component’s vertical axis. For elbows that are changing the vent direction, one screw minimum should be put in the outer flue at the joint to prevent the elbow from rotating.
