of elbows.

2. In attic, position mounting brackets against joist. Trace outline of housing on ceiling mate-rial. (A)

3. Set housing aside and cut ceiling opening slightly larger than marked. (B)

4. Place housing in opening so that its bottom edge is flush with finished ceiling. Nail to joist through keyhole on both sides.(C) To ensure a

Holes in corners of housing are labeled with various ceiling material thicknesses. Position housing so bottom edge of joist is visible through a matched set of holes.

The housing is now in the proper position for that ceiling material thickness. Additional positioning feature for 1/2” thick ceiling material:

Bend two tabs, on side of housing, 900outward. Lift housing until tabs contact underside of joist.

Mark the keyhole slot on both mounting brackets.(A)

3. Set housing aside and drive nails partially into joist at the top of both keyhole marks.(B)

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK

NOTE: The duct connector has a counter-balanced damper flap. The flap will be “open” approx. 1” when duct connector is attached to housing. This design

permits insulation to be in direct contact with fan/light housing per UL (Underwriters Laboratories) standards. The slightest backdraft, however, will close the damper

flap,preventingairfromenteringunitorfinishedspace.

1. Snap the damper/duct connector onto housing.

Make sure that tabs on the connector lock into slots in housing. Top of damper/duct connector should be flush with top of housing.

NOTE: Make sure damper flap is in place inside of

duct connector. If it is not:

snap flap back into place.

2. Connect 4” round duct to damper/duct connector

and extend duct to outside through a roof or wall cap. Check damper to make sure that it opens freely. Tape all duct connections to make them secure

and air tight.
