Figure 11 Shroud Sizing

LDS33 - 36 in. x 36 in. (914 mm x 914 mm)

LDS46 - 48 in. x 72 in. (1219 mm x 1829 mm)

Figure 12 Mark the Cut

C. Measure the chase top to determine what size shroud is needed.

The shroud sides may be cut down to ﬁ t your speciﬁ c size chase top. Measure the outside of the chase top then subtract

that dimension from either 36 in., 48 in. or 72 in. (914 mm, 1219 mm, 1829 mm). That will give you the correct amount

to cut off the shroud side.

Example” The chase measures 24 in. x 32 in. (610 mm x 813 mm), allowing you to use the LDS33. Subtract 24 in. from

36 in. = 12 in. (914.4 mm - 609.6 mm = 304.8 mm), and 32 in. from 36 in. = 4 in. (914.4 mm - 812.8 mm = 101.6 mm).

This will tell you to cut 12 in. (305 mm) off of two sides and 4 in. (102 mm) off the other two sides.

Lay a shroud side on top of another side to use as a pattern to mark your cut line. See Figure 12.

D. Multiple Chimneys in a Single Chase

If more than one ﬁ replace chimney or gas appliance is terminated from a single chase and it is designed to use a decorative

shroud, the following requirements must be maintained:

• A divider plate must be made and installed in the shroud to separate the different systems. This will help prevent one

system that is in use from interacting with another system that may not be in use. See Figure 13.

• Using a minimum of .018 in. (.46 mm) aluminized steel, construct a plate that can be attached to the sides of the shroud

to separate each termination cap. You should now be ready to assemble the shroud.

Note: If using the TS Series caps, NO divider plate is necessary.

• Assemble the legs to the shroud sides. Slide them together so that the sides engage into the clips on the legs. Fasten

with screws where the holes line up. See Figures 14-16.

Note: If you cut down your sides, you will be missing the holes in

one end. Just snap the leg on and use self-tapping screws through

the holes in the legs.
