which the vent passes.

To install firestops for vertical runs that pass through
ceilings:

• Position a plumb bob directly over the center of

the vertical vent component.

• Mark the ceiling to establish the centerpoint of the

vent.

• Position the firestops on both sides of the hole

previously cut and secure the firestops with nails
or screws.

• The heat shields of the firestops MUST BE

placed towards the top of the hole.

• Continue the vent run through the firestops.

NOTE: There must be NO insulation or other
combustibles inside the framed firestop opening.
