Air extraction
Never connect a ventilation system to an active chimney, dryer vent, flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting the ventilation system to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
Important
If the ductwork runs through rooms, ceilings, garages, etc. where temperature variations exist, it may need to be insulated to reduce condensation.
Only for Canada with the DAG 500 Internal blower:
If the installation should meet the construction standard "R2000", then installing the enclosed Reducing Collar is required. It reduces the air flow to a maximum of 300 cfm.
Push the Reducing Collar on the exhaust port of the fan.
Push the exhaust hose over it.
Fix both with a hose clamp.
Condensate trap
(optional accessory for
In some cases, a condensate trap may also be required to collect and evaporate any condensate which may occur. This optional accessory is available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and 6" (150 mm) in diameter.
When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and if possible directly above the exhaust outlet.
