I have to install a dryer vent through the wall of my house. I am unsure of how to go about punching a hole through my exterior brick wall to the dryer exhaust pipe.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Billy,
Carefully mark where you want to vent to go. Draw a circle on brick (chalk, whatever)just a bit larger than vent. Drill holes through brick wall with masonry bit around perimeter of hole. Chip out with hammer/chisel. Drill/-saw out wall hole. Connect vent pipes. Install outside vent cap (caulk it to brick wall) Should be o.k. Good Luck!
