H. Flue Termination

For Horizontal Terminations using the SLP-TRAP2

To attach and secure the termination to the last section of horizontal flue:

The rear flue heat shield MUST be placed one inch above the top of the flue between the wall shield and the base of the termination cap.

One section of the heat shield is attached to the wall shield. The other is attached to the termination cap in the same manner (see Figure 8.10).

The heat shield sections will overlap to match the wall thickness (depth).

If the wall thickness does not allow the required 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) heat shield overlap, an extended heat shield must be used. The extended heat shield will need to be cut to the thickness of the wall and be attached to the wall shield.

The small leg in the shield rests on top of the flue to properly space it from the pipe section (see Figure 8.10).

I.Heat Shield Requirements for Horizontal Termination

WARNING! Risk of Fire! To prevent overheating and fire, heat shields must extend through the entire wall thickness.

DO NOT remove the heat shields attached to the wall shield firestop and the horizontal termination cap (shown in Figure 8.10).

Heat shields must overlap 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) minimum.

There are two sections of the heat shield. One section is factory-attached to the wall shield firestop. The other section is factory-attached to the cap. See Figure 8.12.

If the wall thickness does not allow the required 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) heat shield overlap when installed, an extended heat shield must be used.

If the wall thickness is less than 4-3/8 in. (111 mm) (SLP), the heat shields on the cap and wall shield firestop must be trimmed. A minimum 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap MUST be maintained.

Use an extended heat shield if the finished wall thickness is greater than 7-1/4 in. (184 mm).

The extended heat shield may need to be cut to length maintaining sufficient length for a 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap between heat shields.

Attach the extended heat shield to either of the existing heat shields using the screws supplied with the extended heat shield. Refer to vent components diagrams in the back of this manual.

Rest the small leg on the extended heat shield on top of the pipe section to properly space it from the pipe section.

Important Notice: Heat shields may not be field constructed.

• Horizontal sections must be supported every 5 ft. (1.52 m).

The termination kit should pass through the wall firestops from the exterior of the building.

Adjust the termination cap to its final exterior position on the building and interlock the flue sections.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! the termination cap must be positioned so that the arrow is pointing up.

Use a high-temperature sealant gasket to seal between the pipe and exterior firestop.

Wall shield firestops may be used to provide horizontal support to vent sections.

WARNING! Risk of Fire, Explosion or Asphyxiation! Improper support may allow vent to sag and separate. Use vent run supports and connect vent sections per in- stallation instructions. DO NOT allow vent to sag below connection point to appliance.
