My bathroom is above my garage and the soil pipe runs down through the garage.
I had a building inspector in for a separate matter and he recommended an intumescent fire collar round the soil pipe to prevent fire getting into the bathroom should a fire in the garage melt the soil pipe.
Could someone advise whether this should be located just below the garage ceiling or just above in the void between the joists?
Many thanks
