For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on both sides of a combustible wall through which the vent passes.

To install firestops for horizontal runs that pass through either interior or exterior walls:

•Cut a 12-inch by 12-inch (305mm X 305mm) hole through the wall.

NOTE: The center of the hole is one (1) inch (25.4mm) above the center of the horizontal vent pipe.

•Position the firestops on both sides of the hole previ- ously cut and secure the firestops with nails or screws.

•The heat shields of the firestops MUST BE placed to- wards the top of the hole.

•Continue the vent run through the firestops.
