F0904/FS-8DM, 2 in Clearance, 8 in Pipe Firestop Spacer

Firestop spacers are required at each point where the chimney penetrates a floor space. Their purpose is to establish and maintain the required clearance between the chimney and the combustible materials. When the pipe passes through a framed opening into a living space above, the firestop must be placed onto the ceiling from below. They also provide complete separation from one floor space to another or attic space as required by most codes. When the double wall pipe passes through a framed opening into an attic space, the firestop must be placed into an attic floor.
