The Best Location for your GHOST:

The GHOST should be installed in your attic in a central location within

your home. Above a central hallway or at the top of a stairwell will provide the best airflow.

►ake sure that there aren’t any pipes, wires, rafters or air conditioning or heating ducts running through

the space where the GHOST will be installed. The GHOST can NOT be mounted vertically.

►ake sure that you have adequate exhaust area out of your attic. This can be accomplished with

a combination of roof, ridge or gable end vents. The GHOST requires a minimum of 9 square feet of attic exhaust area.

►

If your home has an engineered roofing system, care should be taken that the GHOST will fit within the truss layout.

Installation

Tools and supplies needed:

You will need the following items: two pieces of 2x stock to match

your existing framing, a saw to cut the hole in the ceiling, a ham-

mer or screw gun to attach the blocking to the existing joists, a

Phillips head screw driver to attach the grille, weather strip mate-

rial and low expansion spray foam sealant.

1. The fan housing will fit either 16” or 24” on center

framing. Cut two pieces of 2x stock (2 x 6 or 2 x 8 etc.)

of the same dimension as the existing joists. Add these

pieces of framing to form a box between the joists

(Figure 1).

TIP: When the GHOST is to be installed in a hallway or

other location with low ceilings, so e ho eowners find

that building a box out of 2 x 10s or si ilar aterial will

raise the GHOST to a position where the noise level

will be reduced but the efficiency of the fans will not

be di inished.

2. Cut a hole in the ceiling under where the GHOST will

be installed. The hole should be no larger than

14 1/2"

x 22 1/2".

This will allow for the grille to cover the ex-

posed edges. The suggested method for making the

proper sized hole in the ceiling is; cut a pilot hole under

where the fan will be installed (Figure 2). From above,

using a saw, cut along the inside edge of the framework

removing the ceiling panel and any strapping within the

framework.

Do not damage electrical wiring or

other hidden utilities.

3. Install a foam weather stripping or other flexible mate-

rial (not supplied) on the top of the joists and added fram-

ing. This will serve to seal between the housing and the

framing as well as dampen vibrations. Check the joint be-

tween the ceiling and the 2x stock. Some types of ceilings

are spaced away from the joists. Any gap between the

2x’s and the ceiling should be sealed prior to final instal-

lation. (Figure 3) Use a low expansion spray foam sealant

(not supplied).

4. Set the GHOST lower housing onto the framing. The

lower housing will fit into the box with the mounting

flanges overlapping the framing.

DO NOT DRAG

THE GHOST INTO POSITION AS THIS MAY

SEVERLY DAMAGE IT

5. Set the GHOST upper housing at an angle on top of

the lower housing, orienting the upper housing so that

the fan motor connections are located in the same cor-

ner (Figure 4). Push the fan electrical connection into

the fan electrical feed. The connectors are ‘keyed’ so

they will only connect correctly (Figure 5).
