8" x 8" Solid Foundation Plate for New Construction

The EZ Vent 8" x 8" solid foundation plate is a compact way to plan a single pass-through in a new foundation. Set it while the mason lays the block foundation or wall, and when it’s time to run a pipe or line, drill through the plate instead of the concrete for a fast, clean, professional finish.

A Compact Pass-Through for One Line

The 8" x 8" size is ideal when you need one planned location for:

  • HVAC line sets
  • Water heater exhausts, including tankless units
  • Electrical conduit
  • Sump pump discharge pipes

Plan several 8" x 8" plates around the foundation so each trade has its own spot, right where it’s needed.

How to Install an 8" x 8" Foundation Plate

  • Block foundations and walls: Set the plate in place while the mason lays the block.
  • Poured concrete walls: Make a reusable jig to hold the plate in the form. Build it once and use it on every job.
