Assembling Slim Line Trim Ring and Heat Shield
Installing Slim Line Trim Ring and Heat Shield
Measure from the fl oor to the center of the vent pipe. Cut
out a 9-1/2 in. (241 mm) hole in the wall. Hold the trim
ring/heat shield assembly in place and put a mark on the
shield with a black marker where it protrudes through the
exterior wall. See Figure A on the next page.
Use that mark as a guide to trim off excess heat shield
with a pair of sheet metal shears.
Figure 5.31 Lay the trim ring on fl at surface and bend up
the six welded brackets into a 90 degree position. The
brackets along the outer edge of the ring are for locating
the ring in the center of the hole.
Figure 5.32 The heat shield is shipped fl at and must be
hand bent into a half circle before attaching it to the trim
ring. Bend the heat shield as shown.
Figure 5.33 Attach the heat shield to the trim ring with
the four screws provided. Screws go through the heat
shield and into the brackets on the trim ring.
Figure 5.34 When installing the trim ring/heat shield
assembly make sure the trim ring is centered in the hole
and that the shield is above the pipe. There must be a
minimum of 3/4 in. (19 mm) minimum clearance main-
tained to combustibles from the top of the heat shield.
Ensure that framing on the inside of the wall is a mini-
mum inner framing diameter of 10 in. x 10. in. (254 mm
x 254 mm).
The four trim ring mounting screws provided should be
replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, con-
crete, or other types of sidings.
