Installing a Wall Mounted RHS8 Heat shield
The RHS8 Heat shield CANNOT be used WITHIN 36" horizontal or

these dimensions the RHS101 Heat Shield MUST be used.
To install the RHS8, frame an opening in combustible construction,

which attaches to the fireplace. After the fireplace and vent pipe has
been installed, clearances should match the dimensions in Figure 16.
