2. Install vent system components per planned vent run.
Route the vent pipe from the fi replace to the Power Vent
using the minimum number of elbows possible.
3. After determining the location of the vent system termina-
tion point (see Step 1) cut a 10 in. X 12 in. rectangular
hole through the wall or roof. Apply the adhesive back
fi berglass tape to the last vent system component 1 1/4"
from the edge. Firmly press the tape on to the venting and
fold the extra tape inside the venting. See Figure 4.34.
Mount and attach the power vent to the last vent system
