Step 9.
Attach the flex to the retro connector.
Use three sheet metal screws to attach
the flex liner to the connector (Figure
26). Mount the retro connector to the ma-
sonry wall using masonry bolts. Redrill
larger holes on connector as needed.
Be careful to ensure that the connector
is centered in the opening and the
mounting holes line up with the masonry
wall.
Step 10.
Slide wall thimble cover (SDV
#940) over retro connector and secure
with masonry bolts (Figure 27). If you
have a framed wall in front of the ma-
sonry, use wood screws to mount wall
thimble cover to framed wall, over retro
connector and 10" (254mm) square
framed opening (Figure 22). If needed,
add a section of direct vent pipe to the
retro connector in order to extend
through the opening in the wall thimble
cover.
Step 11.
The connection between the appli-
ance and the retro connector may be
completed with sections of direct vent
pipe.
