If the PVI-DVP is being installed in a confined space (such as a utility closet, mechanical room or attic space) with a total volume less than 720 cubic ft, an 8 inch by 16 inch hole will be required directly in front of the access panel. The confined space where PVI is installed, and the space to which the access hole opens, must add up to at least 720 cubic feet. This hole may be covered with a decora- tive cover as long as the cover has a minimum of 50% open air. This also applies to a fireplace chase. If the PVI-DVP is being installed in a space greater than 720 cubic ft the 8 inch by 16 inch access hole is still required, but a solid cover may be used.

The access panel opening must be located such that ac- cess for service and adjustment is available. The NEC requires a minimum of 30 inches of space around the opening and 36 inches in front of the opening to the ac- cess panel. Consult officials having jurisdiction regarding regional requirements.
