Finalizing the Installation
Pipe Shield Installation
NOTE: The header and pipe shields may be installed after the fireplace is in place and vent attached (this
allows for the fireplace to fit into the framing underneath the header and for the vent to be installed more
easily).
a) Locate the flattened pipe shield
that was shipped with the fireplace
(attached to header shield).
b) At each of the perforations, bend
the sides of the pipe shield
backwards 90° as shown to the right.
c) When the shield has been properly
formed it should look like "c" to the
right.
NOTE: The bottom flanges should be
facing outward
d) Remove the (4) screws, (2) from
each side of the starter collar.
e) Line up the holes on the pipe shield
flanges with the holes from the
screws you just removed. Use the
screws to attach the pipe shield to
the top of the fireplace.
