WARNING

You must use Model SF Firestop

It is recommended for safety and reducing heat loss that firestopping be used at the ceiling level for chase installation even if local codes do not require firestopping.

Do not insulate chase with blown or fill type insulation. Only allow insulation to come into contact with fireplace at points where fireplace would normally be contacted by framing materials.
