SHIELD 570-290 ABOVE THE FIRST 90 0 ELBOW IN
THE VENTING SYSTEM.
3. Install Support Brackets
Refer to Cinch Pipe and Termination Cap installation in-
structions.
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.
4. Install Firestops
For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on both
sides of a combustible wall through which the vent passes.
NOTE: Model DVP-TRAP does not need an exterior
firestop on an exterior combustible wall.
• 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.
