Note: Heat shields MUST overlap by a minimum of 1-1/2 in. (38 mm).

The heat shield is designed to be used on a wall 4 in. to 7-1/4 in. (102

mmto 184 mm) thick. If wall thickness is less than 4 in. (102 mm) the existing heat shields must be field trimmed. If wall thickness is greater than 7-1/4 in. (184 mm) a DVP-HSM-B will be required.

Figure 6.3 Exterior Wall Hole

Combustible Wall Penetration

Frame a hole in a combustible wall for an interior wall shield firestop, (Figure 6.2) whenever a wall is penetrated. Use same size framing materials as those used in the wall construction. The wall shield firestop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold air infiltration.

Non-Combustible Wall Penetration

If the hole being penetrated is surrounded by noncombus- tible materials such as concrete, a hole with diameter one inch greater than the pipe is acceptable.
