Separate question from current discussion..
Would there be an issue mounting the 18kPV on a cement block wall that is not also filled with concrete? I ran out of room on my wall I built long time ago and wondering if I can skip extending the partition wall then adding cement board and just mount the 18kPV directly to the cement block wall. Manual shows doing that but not sure if there is issue because the blocks aren't filled with concrete.
