INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including
B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
E. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
FOR BEST RESULTS
When installing the Ventilator in a new construction site, install fan and ducting during the
To install a ventilator in an existing building requires access to the attic area above the space to be ventilated.
INSTALLATION IN A NEW
CONSTRUCTION SITE
MOUNTING
1.Select a mounting site; Identify a mounting location that offers accessibility with minimal duct run. Mount ventilator as far from the inlet grille as practical to minimize noise.
NOTE: If used for dryer boosting the ventilator must be mounted at least 12 feet from the dryer outlet. For gas fired dryers the ventilator capacity (CFM) must not exceed the dryer’s fan capacity.
MOUNTING BRACKET
JOIST OR STUD
FAN MOUNTING
FIGURE 1
2.Attach fan mounting bracket to the support joist using the wood screws provided (Refer to Figure 1). For best performance vertical mounting is recommended, however any orientation is acceptable.
3.Attach fan to the mounting bracket using the self threading screws provided (Refer to Figure 1). To ease attachment 1⁄16˝ pilot holes may be used for the mounting screws.
WIRING
1.Run 120v AC house power wiring through switch box to junction box in ventilator housing.
2.Remove ventilator junction box cover.
3.Refer to Figure 2. Connect the house power wire (black) to the terminal marked LI. Connect the house neutral wire (white) to the terminal marked N. The fan housing is fully insulated and therefore no grounding is required.
4.Replace outlet box cover.
5.Connect house power wire to the wall switch.
NOTE: ALL WIRING MUST COMPLY WITH LOCALELECTRICAL CODES.DUCTING INSTALLATION
1.Refer to Figure 3. Attach duct to ventilator inlet and outlet using clamps, fasteners and/or duct tape. Observe the following recommendations for best results;
A.Always minimize duct lengths and turns.
B.When flexible ducting is used be sure that the duct is fully stretched and free of kinks or sharp bends.
C.Use insulated ducting when passing through unconditioned spaces.
D.When insulated ducting is used clamp or tape the inner vinyl core to the inlet and outlet of the fan and tape the vapor barrier surrounding the duct insulation to the fan housing.
E.Always install a damper at the inlet grilles.
