to first position the fireplace and measure to obtain hole
location. Depending on whether the wall is combustible
or noncombustible, cut opening to size. (Fig. 20)
For combustible walls first frame in opening.
Combustible Walls: Cut a 16¹⁄₄"h x 16¹⁄₄" w (413 mm x
413) hole through the exterior wall and frame as shown.
Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening must be 11¹⁄₄"
(286 mm) in diameter.
