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 finished 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.
