shield to protect the wood from starting a fire, or doing damage to the
wiring. Either use thin sheet metal of some sort, or possibly heavy duty
aluminum foil.

Hi,

In the followling picture, you are looking up at an overhead soffit
where I have to insert tees in the 1/2" copper lines running across
the picture.

Is it doable or is just too tight to undertake given all the
electrical wires, the heater lines and the gas line?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron

use a heat shield. Lowes and HomeDepot have heat shield material for $15.
If you use something metal it will just transfer the heat to whatever it
touches. So be careful about how you use metal.
