•Frame an opening 10 inches by 10 inches whenever the vent system pene- trates 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

•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.
