C. Install the Ceiling Firestop
A ceiling fi restop MUST be used between fl oors and attics.
• SLP pipe only - Frame opening 229 mm x 229 mm (9 inch x 9 inch) whenever the vent penetrates a ceiling/floor (see Figure
8.3).
• Frame the area with the same sized lumber as used in ceiling/fl oor joist.
• The ceiling fi restop may be installed above or below the ceiling joists when installed with a attic insulation shield. It must be under joists between fl oors that are not insulated. Refer to Figure 8.4.
• Secure with three fasteners on each side.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT pack insulation around the vent. Insulation must be kept back from the pipe to prevent overheating.
