5" x 8" DVP Termination Kit
Flat Ceiling Installation
•
Remove one shield from box.
Note: Cut previously installed batt insulation to make
room for the attic insulation shield.
•
Wrap shield around pipe if pipe is already installed in
area to be insulated.
•
Match the three holes in each side and fasten with three
screws to form a tube.
•
One or more tabs may be folded outward on the bottom
of the shield to allow attachment to ceiling firestop.
•
Bend remaining tabs inward on bottom of shield where
it rests on the ceiling firestop to maintain the air space
between the pipe and shield. Set the shield on the ceiling
firestop.
•
Bend all tabs inward 90° around the top of the shield.
These tabs must be used to prevent blow-in insulation
from getting between the shield and vent pipe, and to
maintain clearance.
Vaulted Ceiling Installation
•
Remove one shield from box.
Note: Cut previously installed batt insulation
to make room for the attic insulation
shield.
•
Cut the attic insulation shield (if application is for vaulted
ceiling) using a laser-etched cut line, to fit your ceiling
pitch. Snip cut edge to create three bend tabs.
•
Wrap shield around pipe if pipe is already installed in
area to be insulated.
•
Match the three holes in each side and fasten with three
screws to form a tube.
•
One or more tabs may be folded outward on the bottom
of the shield to allow attachment to ceiling firestop.
•
Bend remaining tabs inward on bottom of shield where
it rests on the ceiling firestop to maintain the air space
between the pipe and shield. Set the shield on the ceiling
firestop.
•
Bend all tabs inward 90° around the top of the shield.
These tabs must be used to prevent blow-in insulation
from getting between the shield and vent pipe, and to
maintain clearance.
Bend all tabs inward
90° to maintain
clearance and
prevent insulation
from falling inside

Roof Support
1. Fasten the roof support to the roof sheathing
using 2" wood screws provided. Figure 21.
Ensure that the termination pipe is centered and
has a minimum of 1" clearance on all sides from
combustible materials. Figure 22
2. Slip the rigid pipe section into the roof support
to the required height and tighten the two
clamping bolts to secure pipe. Also, level pipe
vertically (plumb) and secure by tightening the
leveling bolts. (Refer to fireplace instructions for
chimney minimum heights and clearances.)
