Venting requirements

Ductwork needed for installation is not supplied.

Wall cap is provided with interior mounted motor.

Flexible metal ductwork is Not recommended. If it is used, calculate each foot of flexible metal ductwork as two feet of straight metal ductwork. Flexible metal elbows count twice as much as standard elbows. Use metal ductwork only.

Figures 3-7 show common venting methods and types of materials needed. If the ductwork cutout location falls over a joist or stud, a supporting frame must be constructed. Do not cut joist or stud.

NOTE: Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor for exhaust duct before making cutouts.

Recommended duct length for interior mounted blower

Use 6” duct with maximum length of 25 feet for duct system. For best petformance, use no more than three 90” elbows. To calculate the length of system you need, add the equivalent feet for each duct piece used in the system. See the following example:

6” duct system

Fire Hazard

 

Venting system MUST terminate to the outside.

Do Not terminate the ductwork in an attic or other enclosed space.

Do Not use 4-inch laundry-type wall caps. Do Not use plastic-type ductwork.

Use only metal ductwork.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in a fire.

To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside.

Do Not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

Determine which venting method to use. Ductwork can extend either through the wall or roof.

The length of the ductwork and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance. The size of the ductwork should be uniform. Do Not install two elbows together. Use duct tape to seal all joints in the duct system.

Use caulking to seal exterior wall or floor opening around cap.

Interior mounted vent motor installation methods

To install ductwork under a concrete slab, see Insert Sheet.
