4.1.3 TYPICAL THROUGH THE CEILING

A. Move the stove into position with the fl ue centered, midpoint between two
EN
joists to prevent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the center.
B. Cut and frame an opening in the ceiling to provide a 2" (50.8mm) clearance
between the outside of the chimney and any combustible material. DO NOT
FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
Nail headers between the joist for extra support.
Firestop spacers must be placed on the
bottom of each framed opening in any fl oor
or ceiling that the chimney passes through.
If your chimney system is enclosed within
the attic area, a rafter radiation shield is
required.
C. Hold a plumb bob from the underside of
the roof to determine where the opening in
the roof should be. Cut and frame the roof
opening to maintain proper 2" (50.8mm) clearances.
NOTE: The chimney must be supported at the ceiling or roof so that it's
weight does not rest on the appliance and must comply with it's
manufacturer's instructions.
