CONSTRUCTIONS AND CLEARANCE FACTORS FOR APPLIANCES HEAT SHIELDS WHICH
HEAT SHIELD CONSTRUCTIONS
Single layer of continuous material
Single layer of continuous material
Two spaced layers of continuous material
NOTES:
1. Masonry may be used as a heat shield material.
2. Where heat shields are used to reduce appliance clearance dimensions, additional flue shielding
may also be required. Refer to AS/NZS 2918:2001.
3. Non standard installations – Refer to AS/NZS 2918:2001 for guidance.
