note:
It may be necessary to shim the
blower housing in the rough opening
to provide a secure fit. If the blower
is not secured properly, excessive
noise and vibration may result.
The exterior housing assembly MUST be pre-drilled
with a 1/8” drill bit before installing the wall flashing.
To avoid scratches, we recommend sliding the wall
flashing on from the back.
If surface-mounting your
DHC™ Plus
, this step is
not required (see “mounting options” section).
