Question posted by jet549thompson on September 3rd, 2012

What Size Wall Vent Cap Do I Need To Install

The instructions show to cut a 4x12 hole in the wall for rear exhaust, but the standard wall vent cap is only 10" wide. Is this big enough or should I purchase a 12" wide one? There is not an excisting vent.
