Figure 18. Flue Pipe & Firestop
For Vertical Runs - One fi restop is REQUIRED at the hole
in each ceiling through which the fl ue passes.
To install fi restops for vertical runs that pass through
ceilings:
• Position a plumb bob directly over the center of the verti-
cal fl ue component.
• Mark the ceiling to establish the center point of the fl ue.
• Drill a hole or drive a nail through this center point.
• Check the fl oor above for any obstructions, such as wir-
ing or plumbing runs.
• Reposition the heater and fl ue system, if necessary, to
accommodate the ceiling joists and/or obstructions.
• Cut a 25.4 cm X 30.5 cm hole through the ceiling, using
the fi restop pipe opening as a guide.
• Frame the hole with framing lumber the same size as
the ceiling joists.
