TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the

manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.

2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the service discon-

necting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service discon-

necting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the

service panel.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all

applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction codes and standards.

4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney)

of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. 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.

5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utili-

ties.

6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

7. Acceptable for use over a tub or shower when connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt-

er) - protected branch circuit (ceiling installation only).

8. This unit must be grounded.

1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

2. This product is designed for installation in ceilings up to a 12/12 pitch (45 degree angle). Duct connector must point up.

DO NOT MOUNT THIS PRODUCT IN A WALL.

3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off

power unit.

4. Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

For quiet and efficient operation, long life, and attractive appearance - lower or remove grille and vacuum interior of unit

holes in each mounting flange.

a. Slide one hanger bar into the channel on the housing and adjust as

needed to fit between framing.

b. Hold housing in place so that the housing contact the bottom of the

joist, Screw housing to joist through the hole of the housing .

c. Screw the hanger bar onto the other side of joist through the hole.

d. Screw hanger bar to housing with screw.

e. Refer to the right diagram.

3. Mount to I-joist

a. Slide one hanger bar into channel on the housing and adjust as

needed.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

5. INSTALL ROUND DUCTWORK

a. Connect the round ductwork (not included) to the damper/duct

connector, and run the ductwork to a roof or wall cap (not included).

b. Using tape (not included), secure all the ductwork connections so that

they are air tight.

c. Insulated flexible duct is recommended for the quietest possible

installation. If rigid duct is used, a short (1-3 feet) section of insulated

flexible duct will ensure quiet operation.

The ducting from this fan to the outside of building has a strong effect

on the air flow, noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest,

straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid

installing the fan with smaller ducts than recommended. Insulation

around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold growth.

Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their rated air flow.

4. Install DUCT AND BLOWER ASSEMBLY
