bUiLding StrUctUre
For open structure roof designs, the fan should only be hung
from either I-beam or angle iron. Do not hang from purlins,
joists or truss structure.
For solid beam or laminated wood beam mounting, use the
laminated wood beam mounting kit available from 4Front.
Consult a professional engineer or registered architect for
specific mounting concerns.
Ensure fan blade clearance meets the requirements. See
Fig. 1.
PLaceMent and SPacing
Consult your local distributor to help you plan the most
efficient installation of your fans.
Ensure fan placement is such that the fans blades are a
minimum of 10' from any manned working suface (floor or
mezzanine)
Ensure fan blade does not extend into exclusion zone.
Extensions are available if required. See Fig. 1.
Avoid mounting fans directly under lights or skylights to
avoid visual strobing affect.
note:
If the fan is part of a networked system, ensure placement is in
accordance with the building layout. Fan network identification
number is located on the front panel of the VFD box.
note:
Be certain to comply with all local and national codes during
installation.
