When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK

OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND INJURY TO PERSON, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-related construction.b) Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.c) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

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 - Damper Assembly (attached)

1 - Instruction/Safety Sheet

2. Remove the fan’s venturi assembly, which is secured in place with one screw through the

venturi (Figure 1). This is a captive screw and will stay installed in the venturi. Keep the venturi assembly and the grill in the carton until needed so they do not get damaged or lost.

3. 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.

4. Select the most convenient electrical knockout hole

and insert the knockout plug into the 2nd knockout hole (Figure 2).

1. Using the gauge on the fan’s housing (Figure 3), line up housing so that it will be flush with

the finished ceiling or wall. Position the fan so that the tabs rest flat against the joist or stud and secure with four nails (not provided) to ensure proper installation.

Existing Construction

1. Position housing against the joist or stud and trace an outline of the housing onto the

ceiling/wall material (Figure 4). Set housing aside and cut opening, being careful not to cut or damage any electrical or other hidden utilities. Place housing next to the joist or stud and insure that it is flush with the finished ceiling. Secure with four nails (not provided) to ensure proper installation (Figure 3). www.airkinglimited.com 210572050 Rev. H 12-15 2 of 8

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. NOTE: If damper detaches from unit, reattach by snapping the collar back onto the unit. It is designed to only fit one way.

1. Run wiring from an approved wall switch carrying the appropriate rating. One neutral (white),

one ground (green or bare copper), and one hot (black lead connected to the switch). Secure the electrical wires to the housing with an approved electrical connector. Make sure you leave enough wiring in the box to make the connection to the fan’s receptacle.

2. From where you have access to inside the fan’s junction box, connect the White wire from

the house to the White wire from the fan’s receptacle. Connect the Black wire from the wall switch to the Black wire from the fan’s receptacle. Connect the ground wire from the house to the Green wire from the fan’s receptacle (Figure 6). Use approved methods for all connections. Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 Figure 5 Supply from house Figure 6 White Hot (Black) GroundSECTION 6 Completing the Installation

1. Reinstall the fan’s venturi by holding it at approximately a 45 degree angle, hook the two

tabs on the venturi into the slots on the housing and secure in place by tightening the venturi screw. Rotate the blower wheel by hand to ensure it spins freely. Now plug the fan motor into the receptacle (Figure 7).

2. Install the grill by squeezing the two ends of the springs together and installing them up

into the slots of the fan’s venturi. Push the grill up into position (Figure 8).

3. Restore power and test your installation.

1. Cleaning the Grill: Remove grill and use a mild detergent, such as dishwashing liquid,

and dry with a soft cloth. NEVER USE ANY ABRASIVE PADS OR SCOURING POWDERS. Completely dry grill before reinstalling. Refer to instructions in Section 6 Finishing the Installation, to reinstall grill.

2. Cleaning the Fan Assembly: Unplug the motor cord from receptacle and loosen the

venturi screw to remove the venturi from the unit. Wipe all parts with a dry cloth or gently vacuum the fan. NEVER IMMERSE ELECTRICAL PARTS IN WATER. Refer to instructions in

Section 6 Finishing the Installation,, to reinstall venturi.
