[QUOTE="Hookin8easy, post: 192237, member: 1403"] The fire stop is to keep the 1” clearance to combustible material, or vent fast it is often referred to as it helps hold the pipe vertical and support, insulation in the attic is fine to make contact as long as it isn’t a kraft facing, vent height needs to be 3’ higher than anything else within a 10’ perimeter of the pipe. All of the above are assuming you are using b vent(double wall). Also note that if you are going to leave the heater on all winter don’t set the temp lower than 45 degrees or you could rust out the heat exchanger over time. you can put the fire stop/vent fast on the attic side of the Sheetrock, it is a little more aesthetically appealing that way, just have the 1” clearance around the b vent on garage side then [/QUOTE]
