1.  Determine if the heat shield is required. Do so by measuring 

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 

provided in the part. 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 12.

Refer to Cinch Pipe and Termination Cap installation in-
structions.

•  Continue adding vent components, locking each suc-

ceeding component into place.

•  Ensure that each succeeding vent component is securely 

fi tted and locked into the preceding component in the 
vent system.

For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on 
both sides of a combustible wall through which the vent 
passes.

•  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 vent at the joint to prevent the 
elbow from rotating.
