Properly insulate the area around the fan to minimize building heat loss and gain. (Fig.28)

Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed directly over the fan housing in the attic. Our fans and fan/light combination units do not create excessive heat that is a common problem with recessed light fixtures or some competitors' fan/light combinations. Our efficient, cool-running motors and our fluorescent lamp do not create enough ambient heat to be subjected to these limitations.
