For Vertical Runs - One firestop is REQUIRED at the hole in each ceiling through which the flue passes.

To install firestops for vertical runs that pass through ceilings:

Position a plumb bob directly over the center of the ver- tical flue component.

Mark the ceiling to establish the centerpoint of the flue.

Drill a hole or drive a nail through this center point.

Check the floor above for any obstructions, such as wiring or plumbing runs.

Reposition the heater and flue system, if necessary, to accommodate the ceiling joists and/or obstructions.

Cut a 25.4cm X 30.5cm hole through the ceiling, using the firestop pipe opening as a guide.

Frame the hole with framing lumber the same size as the ceiling joists.
