How to Drill a Hole in Brick for Dryer Vent
- 1). Choose the place on the inside of your house where you would like to run the dryer vent hose through the wall. Make sure that the spot you choose is between studs and joists.
- 2). Draw a circle with 4 1/4 inch diameter in the spot where you want to run the hose through the wall. Use the masonry drill bit to drill a hole through the center of your circle to the outside.
- 3). On the brick wall outside, draw another circle with a 4 1/4 inch diameter, using the hole that you drilled through the wall as the center of the circle.
- 4). Attach the tungsten carbide masonry hole saw kit to the drill. Slowly cut the hole through the brick wall and stop whenever the masonry hole saw kit collects dust.
- 5). Drill completely through the brick wall.
