Stove Heat Shields
The Vermont Castings Defiant Rear Heat Shield,
shown below, is one way to reduce the clearance to
the rear wall. The rear heat shield can be installed in
any setting. However, since the chimney connector
also radiates heat toward the wall, you should use a
chimney connector shield whenever you use the rear
heat shield.
Clearance reductions with the rear heat shield
apply only to the wall to the rear in parallel installations.
Neither the side clearance requirement nor the clear-
ance requirement in corner installations may be re-
duced.
