In the process if installing a gas garage heater (Mr. Heater Big Maxx 50,000 BTU). Trying to save a few bucks by doing some of the work myself and a friend helping. Just a couple quick questions:
1. Is there code as to how tall my stack needs to be out the roof of my garage?
2. Do I need to install a firestopper on the garage ceiling sheetrock where my vertical stack goes out?
3. Since the pipe is 3" around, do I need to cut the hole in the sheetrock a lot bigger so there isn't direct contact with it?
3. Is there code as to insulation touching the vent in the attic?
Thanks for the info.
