A.
Level and affi x the mounting 'template' to the wall at the desired location and height. The centre of the
vent pipe must be centered between wall studs.
B.
Using the 'template', mark the holes for the vent, gas and electrical inlets, and mounting screw locations
(must be into studs). See "MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES" section.
NOTE : Use the appropriate cutout on the mounting 'template' for combustible material.
C.
Remove the mounting 'template' from the wall and cut/drill the required holes as marked.
D.
Form the vent shield until the four screw holes overlap then secure from the inside out.

wall mounting plate assembly with the vent shield into the wall.
NOTE : Ensure the assembly is levelled.
H.
Look through slotted holes on the wall mounting plate for pre-marked stud locations and secure wall
mounting plate assembly using a minimum of four screws (minimum one screw per corner must be
mounted to a wall stud).
NOTE : For typical stud wall with drywall installation, fasteners are provided and must engage
into frame/studs.
