INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. The VPK-DV heat shield is attached to the top of
the DVP-TRAP termination cap. The bottom two
pilot holes in the VPK-DV will correspond to two
pilot holes in the top of the DVP-TRAP termination
cap.
2. Align the two pilot holes in the VPK-DV with the
corresponding two pilot holes in the termination
cap. Secure VPK-DV to termination cap with the
two screws provided.
3. Once the VPK-DV is secured to the termination
cap, bend the VPK-DV along the long, horizontal
hand bend. Ensure the two hand bend tabs are
bent toward the vinyl siding as shown in Figure 3.
There is one hand bend tab on each side.
4. Using the two pilot holes located in the top of the
VPK-DV, secure the VPK-DV to siding with the two
screws provided.
NOTE: After the VPK-DV has been installed, it can
be painted with an exterior paint to match the exterior
siding.
