Bases—Foundation and Isolation
Critical to every fan installation is a strong, level foundation. A reinforced poured concrete pad with a structural steel base or inertia base provides an excellent foundation. Structural bases must be sturdy enough, with welded construction, to prevent flexing and vibration.
To eliminate vibration and noise from being transferred to the building, vibration isolators should be used. The fan is mounted directly on the isolation base and must be supported for the entire length of the fan base angle (Refer to the installation manual for structural bases if the base was supplied by Greenheck). Isolators are installed between the isolation base and the foundation.
After the fan, isolation base and isolators are installed, the entire assembly must be leveled. Position the level on the isolation base, not the fan shaft, for proper leveling. Additionally, the motor and fan shafts must be level and parallel relative to each other for proper alignment.
