Mounting Using Hanger Bars

(Hanger bars sold separately, order model HB4) Refer to Figure 3.

1.Insert hanger bars in slots provided in housing.

2.Locate fan housing between joists so that the bottom of the housing is even with the planned finished ceiling. Extend the hanger bars to the joists.

3.Use screws or nails (not provided) to secure hanger bars to ceiling joists.

INSTALLING THE DUCTWORK
