27 For Vertical Runs - The vent system must be supported every eight (8) feet (2.4m) above the fireplace flue outlet by wall brackets. To install support brackets for vertical runs: • Attach wall brackets to the vent pipe and secure the wall bracket to the framing members with nails or screws. • Position the firestops on both sides of the hole [...]

28 For Vertical Runs - One ceiling firestop is REQUIRED at the hole in each ceiling through which the vent passes. To install firestops for vertical runs that pass through ceilings: • Position a plumb bob directly over the center of the verti- cal vent component. • Mark the ceiling to establish the centerpoint of the vent. • Drill a hole or d[...]
