Wall Opening
•
Where applicable, fit all the required Dura-vent DV GS pipes and elbows up to the wall.
See the Dura-vent instructions supplied with the sections.
•
Check the wall opening position.
•
Make Wall Opening.
If the wall is constructed of solid non-combustible materials and has no combustible
surface cladding (including wood) inside or outside then the wall plates or Dura-vent
thimbles will not be required.
If the wall has combustible material, mark the wall for a 10”x10” square. If the wall is
totally non-combustible (e.g. masonry block or concrete) mark for a 7” circular hole. In
both cases, the center of the hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal
vent.

Valor Terminal #551DVK - Preparing Wall Plates
The wall plates are not used for 7” hole in non-combustible walls.
1.
Bend the wall shields and screw to the inside of the wall plates with 6 thread cutting
screws per plate. See figure 33.
2.
Bend the inner wall plate tab as shown in figure 34 so that the seam on the terminal tube
will pass clearly through the plate with the wall shield at the top. Place the inner wall
plate over the terminal unit.
3.
Slide the appliance/terminal into the wall. Make sure that the
drain hole is at the bottom – the seam will be through the
notch in the wall plates – See figure 35.

Slide the inner wall plate up to the wall. Mark the four holes
for the wall screws. Slide the plate away.
