Section 3-3-3: Heat Shields
Installing a Wall Mounted RHS8 Heat shield
The RHS8 Heat shield CANNOT be used WITHIN 36" horizontal or
60" vertically of the fireplace, (see figure 13a). For applications within
these dimensions the RHS101 Heat Shield MUST be used.
To install the RHS8, frame an opening in combustible construction,
Figure 13 below. Slide the Heat shield in place over the vent pipe
which attaches to the fireplace. After the fireplace and vent pipe has
been installed, clearances should match the dimensions in Figure 13.
