Prepare wall penetrations
1. Use the factory supplied wall plate as a template to locate
the vent and air intake holes and mounting holes.
Air pipe penetration:
a. Cut a hole for the air pipe. Size the air pipe hole as
close as desired to the air pipe outside diameter.
Vent pipe penetration:
a. Cut a hole for the vent pipe. For either combustible or
noncombustible construction, size the vent pipe hole
with at least a 1/2 inch clearance around the vent pipe
outer diameter:
• 4½ inch hole for 3 inch vent pipe
Drill 3/16" diameter holes for inserting the plastic anchors
into the wall.
