PLAN THE INSTALLATION

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. Use a roof cap or wall cap that has a built-in damper to reduce backdrafts. Plan to supply the unit with proper line voltage and appropriate power cable.

INSTALL HOUSING & DUCT

1a. Mount housing to joist or I-joist.

Use a pliers to bend housing TABS out to 90. ^D . Hold housing in place so that the housing tabs contact the bottom of the joist. The housing mounts with four (4) screws or nails. Screw or nail housing to joist through lowest holes in each mounting flange, then through highest holes. NOTE: Mounting to I-JOIST (shown) requires use of SPACERS (included) between the highest hole of each mounting flange and the I-Joist.

1b. Mount housing anywhere between brusses, joists, or I-joists using hanger bars. Sliding hanger bars are provided to allow for accurate positioning of housing anywhere between framing. They can be used on all types of framing (I-joist, standard joist, and truss construction) and span up to 24".

Attach the MOUNTING CHANNELS to the housing using the screws supplied. Make sure TABS face "up" as shown. Use the set of channel mounting holes (marked "STD") to mount the housing flush with the bottom of the drywall. Use the other set of holes (not marked) to mount the housing flush with the top of the drywall.

Extend hanger bars to the width of the framing. Hold ventilator in place with the hanger bar tabs wrapping around the bottom edge of the framing. Mail ventilator to framing or fasten with screws (not provided) through holes near nails. ^ To ensure a noise-free mount: Secure hanger bars together with screws or use a pliers to crimp mounting channels tightly around hanger bars.

2. Attach damper/ducl connector.

Snap damper / duct connector onto housing. Make sure connector is flush with top of housing and damper flap falls closed.

3. Install 6-inch round ductwork.

Connect 6-inch round ductwork to damper / duct connector. Run ductwork to a roof cap or wall cap. Tape all ductwork connections to make them secure and air light.
