    Routing Grill hood vent through ceiling

    Thanks! I'll look for one. I'm back at work, so the progress has stopped. The good news though; we had a nice storm roll through last night and the attic stayed dry! No wet spots around the pipe either. I also was informed that the hood is too low/close to the grill. I now have to remove...

    Routing Grill hood vent through ceiling

    Thanks again for the response. I just spoke w/ a local builder here in my subdv about this, & he said being an outside vent, I just need to cut the hole a little bigger, like you said, but I don't need to put anything around the pipe. As for the plywood, I considered that, but wasn't sure if...

    securing pt 2x4's to a brick wall

    OK, here's an old picture. The hood will be about 32" above the grill, and just a simple box type frame. [/URL]

    securing pt 2x4's to a brick wall

    Good morning- I'm planning on building a vent hood above my outdoor grill. The wall behind the grill is brick. I'm assuming I use pressure treated 2x4's for the framing. I have cypress for the outer shell of the hood. As for securing it to the brick wall, would I use tapcon screws, or...
