shown in this section.

Top Vent

If a straight section of pipe is attached directly to the appli

ance starting collar, the elbow heat shield is not required.

When installing a 90 degree elbow (SLP90) directly to the

top of the appliance starting collar, the following additional

provisions MUST be followed:
1. The elbow heat shield is not required if combustible

materials, or combustible chases, are installed a mini

mum of 15 inches above the top of the appliance.

2. If the combustible materials are to be installed be

tween 12 to 15 inches above the top of the appliance,

the elbow heat shield is required. See Figure 6.2.

Figure 6.1

Elbow Heat Shield (Shown as Shipped)

WARNING! Risk of Fire!

Elbow heat shield must be

installed if required. Overheating will occur.

ELBOW HEAT SHIELD

To Install Elbow Heat Shield:

1. Remove the elbow heat shield from the shipping posi

tion, shown in Figure 6.1, by removing screws.

2. Fasten the shield in place using the four pilot holes.

The shield should be oriented such that the 13 1/8 inch

dimension (longest dimension) is running 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 6.3.

• If the combustible materials are not in place at the time

of install the elbow heat shield may be screwed to the

exhaust pipe. See Figure 6.4. Cut the tabs as shown

and bend down. Secure the heat shield to the pipe

maintaining 3” to 4” between the pipe and shield.

• Continue adding vent components, locking each suc

ceeding component into place.

• 90° elbows may be installed and rotated to any point

around the preceding component’s vertical axis.
