STEP 4 CHECKING WIRING AND PLUMBING: Check all wiring and
plumbing inside and outside of the wall to be sure none will be
broken where the hole is to be cut.
STEP 5 HOLE CONSTRUCTION: Depending upon size of unit to be
installed, lay out the hole dimensions per the chart below. Cut
and frame in hole to
¿nished dimensions. Use 2" x 4" material for
framing and follow the suggested typical installations in Figure
C, D, or E.
NOTE: IF THE WALL CONSTRUCTION IS TYPICAL FRAME
OR 2 x 4 STUDDING WITH BRICK OR STONE VENEERS,
LOCATE THE HOLE NEXT TO ONE OF THE STUDS. FOR
MASONRY, CONCRETE OR CINDER BLOCK WALLS,
LOCATE HOLE FOR CONVENIENCE.
NOTE: THESE DIMENSIONS ARE FOR FINISHED HOLE SIZE.
