C. Vertical Penetration Framing

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Keep loose materials or blown insulation from touching the vent pipe.

National building codes recommend us- ing attic shield to keep loose materials/ blown insulation from contacting vent.

Hearth & Home Technologies requires the use of an attic shield.

Installing the Ceiling Firestop

Frame an opening 10 inches by 10 inches whenever the vent system penetrates a ceiling/floor (see Figure 6.4).

Frame the area with the same sized lumber as used in ceiling/floor joist.

When installing a top vent vertical ter- mination appliance the hole should be directly above the appliance, unless the flue is offset.

Do not pack insulation around the vent. Insulation must be kept away from the pipe.

Installing Attic Shield

Note: An additional ceiling firestop is not required if attic shield is used.

Frame opening for attic shield.

Attic shield may be installed above or below ceiling (see Figure 6.5).

Secure with three fasteners on each side.

Fold tabs at top of attic shield in toward vent pipe. Tabs must keep vent pipe centered within shield.

Field construct additional shield height if insulation is deeper than height of attic shield.
