Cutting the Hole
After the fireplace has been positioned in its permanent location,
the hole through the exterior wall of the house can be cut. This hole
must be 12" (305mm) high x 10" (254mm) wide with its center line
determined by the amount of vertical rise and horizontal run of the
termination. See Figure 29.

and no closer than 9" (229mm) to any wall running parallel to vent
