STEP 3. With the pipe attached to the stove in the correct location, mark the wall for a 10” (25.4 cm) x 10” (25.4 cm) square hole (refer to Figure 9). The center of the square hole should match the center line of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 10” (25.4 cm) x 10” (25.4 cm) hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated. Refer to Figure 8. If the wall being penetrated is constructed of
