FIRESTOP SPACERS (FS-10)

Firestop spacers are required at each point 

where the chimney penetrates a floor or ceiling 

joist space. Their purpose is to establish and 

maintain the required clearance between the 

chimney and the combustible materials. 
When penetrating a floor or ceiling at an angle, 

use firestop spacer number 30FS-10 (see 

Re-

placement and Accessory Parts

, page 15).

When the pipe passes through a framed open-

ing into a living space above, the firestop must 

be placed onto the ceiling from below as shown 

in Figure 19, page 9. When the pipe passes 

through a framed opening into an attic space 

above, the firestop must be placed on the attic 

floor as shown in Figure 20, page 9.
