If venting with a 90 degree elbow directly off of the top of
the appliance, the elbow heat shield must be repositioned
as shown in Figure 9.2.
If not venting with a 90 degree elbow, remove the elbow
heat shield and discard by removing the two 1/4 in. screws
that secure the elbow heat shield to the top of the fireplace.
For all venting applications, ensure that the pipe gasket is
in place before attaching any pipe section. This gasket is
shipped in place around the starting collar. See Figure 9.2.
