Fire Stopping

[Lizardlips]

Hi there

Whats the best method to firestop a gas pipe passing through a cieling?

Any advice appreciated, Thanks

Define: best.

It should be sleeved and sealed with intumiscent mastic or a fire collar, whatever the spec says.

I assume you're talking steel pipe.

No... Copper pipe.

are you working in a house , flat or what?

Why do you need to fire stop it then.

Where is the pipe and why.

In a house - just a plaster board ceiling.
