FOR BEST RESULTS

When installing the exhaust fan in a new construction site, install housing during the rough-in construction of the building. The blower unit and grille should be installed after the finished ceiling is in place.

To install the exhaust fan in an existing finished building requires an accessible area (attic or crawl space) above the planned location.

PLANNING DUCTWORK AND WIRING

DUCTWORK

1.Use 4" round duct.

2.Plan to run duct from discharge opening of fan to the outside. For best fan performance, make duct run as short as possible.

3.Use optional NuTone ducting accessories as needed. Refer to your NuTone catalog for a complete listing of available accessories.

WIRING

Plan to run 120vAC house wiring (with ground) from power source, through a standard wall switch to junction box in fan housing.
