Passing Through a

Combustible Wall or Ceiling

An approved pass-through device is always required
when a vent passes through a combustible wall or
ceiling. Check with the maker of the vent system for
the correct listed devices that are available. A listed
pass-through device is required whether or not the
installation includes decorative pipe around the Type B
venting system. NOTE: It is essential to seal between
the ceiling support (sometimes called a ‘firestop
spacer’) and the decorative pipe, if installed, with a
high-temperature silicone sealant. (Fig. 6)

Complete the venting system installation according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.
