|
| |

|
| |
with masonry bolts (Figure 27). If you |
|
| |
have a framed wall in front of the ma- |
|
| |

thimble cover to framed wall, over retro |
|
| |
|
| ||

|
| |
|

framed opening (Figure 22). If needed, |
|
| |
add a section of direct vent pipe to the |
|

|
| |

|
|
ance and the retro connector may be completed with sections of direct vent pipe.
