Intent | Intent 1: To exempt duct connectors from the application of Sentence 9.33.6.2.(1), where certain criteria are met. This
is to limit the probability of the ignition of combustible duct system components,
which could lead to the spread of fire and smoke throughout the building,
which could lead to damage to the building.
