positioning the Fireplace
Determine the exact position of the appliance so the direct vent
termination will be centered (if possible) between two (2) studs. This
will avoid any extra framing. All vent kit pipes should be assembled
on the unit after the unit is moved into the final position.
Cutting the Hole (
Figure
19)
After the fireplace has been positioned in its permanent location,
the hole through the exterior wall of the house can be cut. This hole
must be 11" (279.4 mm) high x 10" (254mm) wide with its center
line determined by the amount of vertical rise and horizontal run of
the termination.
See
Figure
19.
When locating the hole it must be noted that the bottom of the cap
must be 12" (305mm) above the ground level, and top of the cap
must be no less than 18" (457mm) below a combustible projection,
and no closer than 9" (229mm) to any wall running parallel to vent
termination.
See
Figures
32, 33, and 36.
