FRAMING
4.5 Framing
4.5.1 Positioning the Fireplace
Determine the exact position of the fireplace so the direct-vent termination will be centered (if possible)
between two studs.
This will avoid any extra framing. All vent kit pipes should be assembled on the fireplace after the fireplace
is moved into the final position.
4.5.2 Cutting the Hole
After the fireplace has been positioned in its permanent location, the hole through the exterior wall can be cut.
This hole must be 10 in (254 mm) high x 10-5/8 in
(270mm) wide with its center line determined by
the amount of vertical rise and horizontal run of the
termination.
When locating the hole it must be noted that the
bottom of the cap must be minimum of 12 in
(305mm) above the ground level, and top of the
cap must be no less than 18 in (457mm) below
a combustible projection, and no closer than
9 in (229mm) to any wall running parallel to vent
termination.
