WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

HORIZONTAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum clearance
of 1" at the bottom and sides and 2" at the top of the vent
pipe on all horizontal runs to combustibles is required. Use
fi restop spacer W010-1778 (supplied).
VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum clearance of 1"
all around the vent pipe on all vertical runs to combustibles
is required except for clearances in fi replace enclosures.
Use fi restop spacer W500-0367 (not supplied).
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when
venting through an exterior
wall. Having determined the air
terminal location, cut and frame
a hole in an exterior wall with a
minimum opening as required.

ADJUSTABLE FIRESTOP

Apply a bead of caulking all around and place the fi restop top,
so that the vent shield covers the top of the vent within the
opening. Place the fi restop bottom against the fi restop top and
secure the two together. Adjust the assembly to ensure it is
tight to the vent. Secure fi restop to wall. This restricts cold air
from being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure
that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance
to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its
fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the
fi restop spacer. See fi gures 30a-c.

INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through a roof. Instal-
lation kits for various roof pitches are available from your
Authorized dealer. See Accessories to order the specifi c kit
having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the center of
the openings.
DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insula-
tion, from fi lling up the 1" air space around the pipe. Nail
headers between the joist for extra support.
2. Apply a bead of
caulking (not sup-
plied) to the frame-
work or to the
Wolf Steel vent
pipe shield plate
or equivalent (in the case
of a fi nished ceiling), and
secure over the opening in
the ceiling. A fi restop must be placed on the bottom of each
framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system
passes through. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place
a fi restop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from

being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure
that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance
to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its
fi nal position, apply sealant (not sup-
plied) between the pipe / liner and the
fi restop spacer.
3. In the attic, after the pipe / liner has
been installed, slide the vent pipe col-
lar down to cover up the open end
of the shield and tighten. This will
prevent any materials, such as
insulation, from fi lling up the 1"
air space around the pipe.

required.
1. Determine the air terminal

10½" openings in the
ceiling and the roof to
provide the minimum
clearance between the
fireplace pipe / liner
and any combustible
material. Try to center
the exhaust pipe location
midway between two joist to prevent
