READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect the electricity to the working area at the main breaker panel before performing installation steps for hardwiring.

WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect the power before servicing.

WARNING: Risk of injury or property damage. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

CAUTION: Risk of personal injury. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

IMPORTANT! The R value of the ceiling thermal insulation used must not exceed R60.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, observe the following:

Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to service the panel.

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

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.

When cutting or drilling into a wall or ceiling, do not damage the electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

If this unit is to be installed over a bath or shower, the unit must be marked as appropriate for the application and be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) – protected branch circuit.

Follow all local plumbing, building, and electrical codes.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ENERGY STAR Insulation (Place around and over fan housing) Fan Housing Power Cable Seal gaps around housing. Round Duct Seal duct joints with tape. OR Round Elbows Roof Cap (With damper) Keep duct runs short. Wall Cap (With damper)

The ducting 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.

6" (152 mm) round rigid metal duct is recommended for best performance.

Verify that the duct joints and exterior penetrations are sealed with caulk or other similar material to create an air-tight path, minimize building heat loss/gain, and to reduce the potential for condensation.

Place or wrap insulation around the duct and/or fan to minimize possible condensation buildup within the duct, as well as minimize building heat loss/gain.

1. Prepare the Site

Support Block (Provided) Screw Joist Finished Ceiling Support Block (Provided) 1/2" (13 mm)

IMPORTANT! One side of the hole must align with a joist.

NOTE: It is recommended that an additional 2x6 vertical support block is constructed on the side of the hole opposite the joist. Use the provided support block if an additional 2x6 vertical support cannot be constructed.

□ Remove the old fan if installing in an existing fan location.
☐ Patch or enlarge the ceiling hole using the provided template taking care to align one edge of the hole with a joist.
☐ Install a 2x6 vertical support block on the edge of the hole opposite the joist. If this is not possible, install the provided support block using the following steps.

Support Block Installation

NOTE: The screws used to attach the support block to the finished ceiling must be located 1/2" (13 mm) or closer to the edge of the hole to allow the fan box flange to cover the screws.

□ Align the support block with the edge of the ceiling hole inside the finished ceiling.

☐ Secure the provided support block behind the ceiling drywall using screws (not provided).

2. Install the Duct Connector

Duct Connector Adapter φ4" Ø6" Tabs

NOTE: If the duct is 4", use the duct connector adapter.

☐ Secure the duct connector to the duct using a duct clamp.
□ Verify that the duct connector is positioned at the edge of the hole with the tabs at the top.

3. Connect the Wires

Black Blue White Green Black Black White Green/Copper Fan Only Fan and Light

□ Remove the side panel on the junction box.
□ Carefully run the ceiling wires through the hole in the back of the junction box.
☐ Pull the junction panel wires and the ceiling wires through the side opening on the junction box to connect.

Fan Only

☐ Attach the ground wire (usually bare copper or green) from the junction box to the ground wire (green) from the junction panel.
☐ Attach the neutral wire (usually white) from the junction box to the neutral wire (white) from the junction panel.
☐ Attach the hot wire (usually black) from the junction box to the fan wire (black) from the junction panel.

Fan and Light

NOTE: Attach the lighting wire and the fan wire to separate hot wires to operate the light and fan from separate switches (shown). Attach the lighting wire and the fan wire to the same hot wire to operate the light and the fan from the same switch.

☐ Attach the ground wire (usually bare copper or green) from the junction box to both ground wires (green) from the junction panel.
☐ Attach the neutral wire (usually white) from the junction box to both neutral wires (white) from the junction panel.
□ Attach the hot wire (usually black) from the junction box to the fan wire (black) from the junction panel.
□ Attach the hot wire (usually black) from the junction box to the lighting wire (blue) from the junction panel.

All Models

☐ Secure the wires together with the provided wire nuts.
□ Wrap the wire nuts with electrical tape.
□ Verify that all plastic wire nuts are securely fastened and strands of bare wire are not exposed.
☐ Tuck all connected wires into the junction box and secure the junction box panel back onto the side of the junction box.

4. Install the Junction Panel

Slots Flange

Support Block (Provided) Joist

☐ Slide the junction panel into the ceiling. Verify that the slots on the junction panel slide over the edges of the duct connector.

☐ Verify that the flange on the junction panel stays below the finished ceiling when installed.

□ Verify that the junction panel is level.

☐ Secure the junction panel to the joist using the provided screws.

☐ If a 2x6 vertical support block was used, secure the other side of the junction panel to the support block with two more provided screws. If the provided support block was used, the other side of the junction panel does not have to be secured.

5. Install the Fan Box

Support Block (Provided) Joist

CAUTION: Risk of personal injury. Fan box edges are sharp. Use proper protective equipment when handling the fan box.

☐ Verify that the exhaust hole in the fan box aligns with the square hole in the junction panel.
☐ Slide the fan box into the ceiling.
☐ Secure the fan box to the joist and the 2x6 support block or the provided support block using the provided screws.
