e) This unit must be grounded.
f) To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.

WARNING: IF FAN IS INTENDED FOR CONTINUOUS

OPERATION DO NOT POWER FAN UNTIL ALL CONSTRUCTION HAS

BEEN COMPLETED. THE FAN WILL DRAW IN AIRBORNE DUST THAT COULD

IMPAIR OPERATION AND REDUCE THE LIFE OF THE MOTOR. USAGE OF

FAN DURING CONSTRUCTION PROCESS WILL VOID ALL WARRANTY.

g) Read all instructions before installing or using exhaust fan.
h) If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it must be marked as appropriate for the application and be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interruptions) - protected branch circuit.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,

ELECTRIC SHOCK,DO NOT USE THIS FAN WITH

ANY SOLID-STATE SPEED CONTROL DEVICE.

WARNING: DO NOT USE IN KITCHENS.

WARNING: THE DUCTING FROM THIS FAN TO THE

OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING HAS A STRONG EFFECT

ON THE AIR FLOW, NOISE AND ENERGY USE OF THE FAN. USE THE SHORTEST, STRAIGHTEST DUCT ROUTING POSSIBLE FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, AND AVOID INSTALLING THE FAN WITH SMALLER DUCTS THAN RECOMMENDED. INSULATION AROUND THE DUCTS CAN REDUCE ENERGY LOSS AND INHIBIT MOLD GROWTH. FANS INSTALLED WITH EXISTING DUCTS MAY NOT ACHIEVE THEIR RATED AIRFLOW.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: MAKE SURE POWER IS SWITCHED OFF AT SERVICE PANEL BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.

SECTION 1

Preparing the Exhaust Fan

1. Unpack fan from the carton and confirm that all pieces are present. In addition to the exhaust fan you should have:

1 - Grill
1 - Light Assembly
1 - Damper Assembly (attached)
4 - Mounting Rails
1-Lamp

1-Instruction/Safety Sheet

1. Choose the location for your fan. To ensure the best air and sound performance, it is recommended that the length of ducting and the number of elbows be kept to a minimum, and that insulated hard ducting be used Larger duct sizes will reduce noise and airflow restrictions. This fan will require at least 8" of clearance in the ceiling or wall.

and will mount through drywall up to 3 / 4'' thick. The fan mounts between 16'' or 24'' on center joists using the 4 provided mounting rails.

1. Select the most convenient electrical knockout and remove using a straight-blade screw driver and install an approved electrical connector (Figure 1).
2. No additional vibration deadening materials are needed for this fan.

SECTION 2

New Construction

1. Install the rails into the mounting channel on the housing. Center the mounting channel in the slots on the housing, then from inside the housing tighten the mounting channel screws so the channel is securely in place. Position the housing next to the joist. Line up housing so that it will be flush with the finished ceiling. Secure the ends of the rails with screws or nails (not included) to the joists and slide the housing into the final position (Figure 2).

SECTION 3

Existing Construction

1. Set housing in position between the joist and trace an outline onto the ceiling material (Figure 3). Set housing aside and cut opening, being careful not to cut or damage any electrical or other hidden utilities. Install the rails into the mounting channel on the housing. Center the mounting channel in the slots on the housing, then from inside the housing tighten the mounting channel screws so the channel is securely in place. Position the housing in the previously cut hole so that it is flush with the finished ceiling. Secure the ends of the rails to the joists (Figure 2).

SECTION 4

Ducting

NOTE: 4^th OR LARGER RIGID DUCT IS RECOMMENDED FOR BEST PERFORMANCE.

CAUTION: ALL DUCTING MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL BUILDING CODES.

NOTE: The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building has a strong effect on the air flow, noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their rated air flow.

1. Connect the ducting to the fan's duct collar (Figure 4). Secure in place using tape or screw clamp. Always duct the fan to the outside through a wall or roof cap. It is recommended that low restriction termination fittings be used.

1. Ensure duct joints and exterior penetrations are sealed with caulk or other similar material to create an air-tight path to minimize building heat loss or gain and to reduce the potential for condensation. Place/wrap insulation around duct and/or fan in order to minimize possible condensation buildup within the duct, as well as building heat loss or gain (Figure 5).

SECTION 5

Wiring

CAUTION:MAKE SURE POWER IS SWITCHED OFF A SERVICE PANELBEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.

CAUTION: ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES, ORDINANCES, OR NATIONAL CAL CODE. IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH METHODS OF INSTALLING ELECTRICAL SECURE THE SERVICES OF A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

NOTE: This unit includes a side access panel for wiring that does not require the removal of the fan's blower assembly. If you choose to wire the unit from the inside, you will need to remove the blower assembly and internal wiring compartment. Both methods are equally effective.

1a. External Wire Compartment: Remove the wire compartment cover screw and place cover in a secure place (Figure 6).

1b. Internal Wire Compartment: Remove the screw holding the blower assembly in place and lift assembly out of housing (Figure 7). Remove the wire compartment cover screw and place the cover in a secure place (Figure 8).

NOTE: If the fan motor plug is connected to the fan housing receptacle, unplug so the blower assembly can be completely removed.

2. Continuous Ventilation: For two speed fans wired for continuous ventilation, connect the White wires of the fan to the White (Neutral) wire from the power source. Connect the ground wire from the house to the green wire from the fan housing. Connect the Black wire of the fan to the Black wire (Hot) from the power source. Using a properly grounded standard duplex toggle switch (such as Leviton 5224-2W, not included) connect the Black wire from the supply to one side of the top and bottom switch. Connect the Red wire (light) from the fan housing to the other side of the top switch and connect the Purple wire (night light) from the fan housing to the other side of the bottom switch. Using a second properly grounded standard duplex toggle switch, connect the Hot Yellow wire from the fan to the input of the switch. Connect the second Yellow wire from the fan to the output side of the switch. Closing the switch will change from normal to high speed (Figure 9).

3. Intermittent Ventilation: For two speed fans wired for intermittent ventilation with a standard duplex toggle switch (such as Leviton 5224-2W not included). Connect the White wires of the fan to the White (Neutral) wire from the power source. Connect the ground wire from the fan to the ground wire from the power source. Properly ground the switches. Connect the black wire from the supply to one side of the top switch. Connect the black wire from the fan to the other side of the top switch, Connect 1 yellow wire from the fan to each side of the bottom switch. The top switch turns the fan On & Off, the bottom switch changes speed between high and low. Using a second properly grounded standard duplex toggle switch, connect the Black wire from the supply to one side of the top and bottom switch. Connect the Red wire (light) from the fan housing to the other side of the top switch and connect the Purple wire (night light) from the fan housing to the other side of the bottom switch (Figure 10).
NOTE: The fan's receptacle wires might need to be pulled outside compartment for connection. Only pull the three loose wires outside of compartment. Additional wires will be present.
4. Carefully tuck wires back inside wire compartment and replace wire compartment cover securing with the screw that was removed earlier.

SECTION 6

Completing the Installation

1. Use a sealant appropriate for contact with the building materials present and for the temperature requirements of the installation to prevent air leakage from unconditioned spaces is recommended. If gaps between unit housing and ceiling are great, additional material (backing rod, ceiling material) may be required.

NOTE: This fan is rated for direct insulation contact (Type IC) and it is recommended that this fan be completely covered by insulation in order to reduce heat loss or gain to unconditioned space.

1. If the fan's blower assembly was removed during the wiring process, reinstall the blower by reversing the directions in Step 1b in Section 5 Wiring.
2. Plug the fan's 5 pin quick connect motor cord into the receptacle on the side of the wiring compartment cover and the light's 3 pin quick connect into the receptacle on the top of the wiring compartment cover. These cords will only fit one way into the receptacles (Figure 11).

4. Install the included lamp into the lamp holder by lining up the pins on the lamp base to the socket of the lamp holder and turning the lamp body clockwise until the lamp snaps into place and is firmly seated in the lamp holder. Install a 4 watt maximum type C7 (candelabra base) night light (not included) into the side lamp holder (Figure 12).

5. Install the reflector onto the grill by placing the slots on the side of the reflector over the lens clips near the center of the grill. While squeezing the middle of the reflector, slide it so that the plastic notches rest under the lens clips and the reflector feels secure (Figure 13).

6. Install the grill (with reflector) by squeezing the two ends of the springs together and installing them up into the slots on the fan's housing. Push the grill up into position (Figure 14).
7. Restore power and test your installation.

SECTION 7 Setting the Humidistat

This fan may be equipped with a humidity sensor that automatically turns the fan on when humidity is above set point and off when humidity is at or below set point. If the fan is operating too long or not enough, first check to see the humidity sensor set point. In cases where the ambient humidity level of the room rises higher than the preset level, the fan will turn on even if the room is not occupied. This helps prevent conditions that lead to mold growth.

CAUTION:MAKE SURE POWER IS SWITCHED OFF AT SERVICE PANEL BEFORE SERVICING THE UNIT.

1. To set the desired humidity level of the room, remove the grill and locate the dehumidistat dial located on the wire compartment cover.
2. Set the dial to the relative humidity you want the fan to maintain usually between 50 & 80% . Moist climates will require higher settings than dry climates. When the humidity level of the room is below this setting the fan will remain off. When the humidity level rises about this setting the fan will turn on and run until the humidity level falls below this setting.
3. Reinstall the grill and restore power.

SECTION 8 Use and Care

CAUTION:MAKE SURE POWER IS SWITCHED OFF AT SERVICE PANEL BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.

1. Cleaning the Grill: Remove grill and dislodge reflector from grill by sliding the reflector notches from beneath the lens clips on grill. Use a mild detergent, such as dishwashing liquid, to clean then dry with a soft cloth. NEVER USE ANY ABRASIVE PADS OR SCOURING POWDERS. Completely dry grill before reinstalling. Clean reflector using a dry cloth. Refer to instructions in Section 6 Completing the Installation, to reinstall reflector and grill.
2. Cleaning the Fan Assembly: Wipe all parts with a dry cloth or gently vacuum the fan. NEVER IMMERSE ELECTRICAL PARTS IN WATER.
