HORIZONTAL TERMINATION - A clearance to
combustibles of 1" at the bottom and sides of the vent
and 2" at the top must be maintained when penetrating
combustible walls. The firestop spacer supplied with
the unit must be used to maintain the clearance.
VERTICAL TERMINATION - Only a clearance to

FIRESTOP SLEEVE ASSEMBLY
1. Assemble the two halves of the vent sleeve by aligning
the holes that come together to make a rectangular shape
(lip to the outside). Secure using 6 of the screws supplied
in the manual baggie.
NOTE: SCREWS NOT REQUIRED IN TWO BLIND HOLES.
See Figure 20a.
2. Fit the firestop
spacer into one end
of the vent sleeve
and secure through
the aligned holes

This application occurs when venting through an exterior
wall. Having determined the air terminal location, cut
and frame a hole in the exterior wall 9 7/8 inches wide by
11 3/8 inches high to accommodate the firestop sleeve
assembly.
NOTE: THE FIRESTOP SLEEVE ASSEMBLY MUST BE
INSTALLED WITH THE 2" CLEARANCE TO THE TOP.
1. Insert the firestop sleeve assembly into the wall, mark
the wall depth and trim the vent sleeve to suit. The
screws that secure the vent sleeve may need to be
repositioned to ensure a rigid assembly is maintained.
2. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the inside
surface of the firestop flange and secure the assembly to
the wall. (Ensure that the rectangular shaped assembly is
installed to maintain 2" from the top of the vent).
3. Once the vent pipe liner is installed in it's final position,
apply high temperature sealant (not supplied) between
the pipe/liner, and the firestop.
NOTE: DO NOT FILL THE CAVITY BETWEEN THE PIPE/
LINER AND THE VENT SLEEVE WITH ANY TYPE OF
MATERIAL.
