10.0 INSTALLATIONS WITH HORIZONTAL TERMINATION –
See sections 4 & 5 for full range of horizontal termination applications.
10.1 Installations except with Valor #551DVK Terminal – Vent pipe fitting
Fit all the required pipes and elbows securely twist locking each section. See the instructions supplied with the sections.
10.2 Making Wall Opening
If the wall is constructed of solid non-combustible materials and has no combustible surface cladding (including wood) inside
or outside the wall plates or thimbles will not be required.
With all the required pipes attached, slide the appliance into its correct location. (If the Valor #551DVK terminal is being
used, leave it off at this stage). If the wall has combustible material, mark the wall for a 10" x 10" square hole if the wall. 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.
