note:
Consider blower location carefully as the air flow sound from the blower is more apparent the closer it is to the
appliance. See “sound considerations” section for details.
! WARNING
6.1 flush
• Minimum clearance to combustibles must be maintained or a serious fire hazard could result.
• DO NOT cover or place any items in the
Dynamic Heat Control™ air outlet opening. Failure to comply with
these instructions will create a fire hazard.
• DHC™ Plus CANNOT be mounted directly above or below the appliance vent terminal as this will
cause the system to fail. It MUST be mounted to the left or right of the appliance vent terminal.
• For optimal performance, we recommend installing DHC™ Plus within the top 12” (30.5cm) of the enclosure.
However, it MUST be installed above the appliance.
• The minimum height requirement above the appliance will vary depending on the appliance size. See “minimum
venting requirements” section of your appliance manual for details.
In this mounting option, the wall flashing and exterior housing assembly are flush with the finished exterior wall.
A 14 1/2” (36.8cm) by 17 1/4” (44cm) rectangular opening must be framed into the exterior wall (see “minimum
framing requirements” section for details) .
