INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

This window fan has been designed to fit double-hung or vertical slider/windows with minimum openings of 19” wide and 14” high. As noted above, it is also designed and recommended for use with your window screen in place.

FOR DOUBLE-HUNG AND SLIDER WINDOWS:

NOTE: On SLIDER WINDOWS the bottom section must be the side you add extenders to (left side). The controls should face toward the window.

STEP 1. With the window open, take an accurate measurement of the opening where the unit will be placed.

STEP 2. Match your window measurement with the installation guide on page 2; adding the appropriate extender panel(s) (3.5” each) to the left side, while using the built-in extender on the right side (up to 7”).

STEP 3. Once you have added extender panels (if necessary), set the fan in the window and complete the installation process with the built-in extender. Pull out both clips on the right side (top to bottom) of the fan, then adjust the built-in extender to fill the remaining space. After obtaining a snug, safe fit, lock the extender in place, by pushing the clips down.

STEP 4. Carefully close the window onto the top of the fan so that the bottom edge of

the window rests behind the top line of the fan housing. This helps hold the fan in place.
