Warning                                                

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 any questions, contact the manufacturer.

2.  Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at service 

panel and lock service panel to prevent power from being 

switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting 

means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning 

device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

3.  To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, the integral 

damper end switch should only be used to switch ventilation 

equipment rated Maximum 10A, 1/2 HP.

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 guidelines and safety standards, 

such as those published by the National Fire Protection 

Association (NFPA), and the American Society of Heating, 

Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and 

the local code authorities. 

5.  In addition to the following manufacturer’s instructions, it is 

necessary to comply with federal, state, and local government 

codes. Your purchase of this ALDES ventilation system 

represents an investment in the health and comfort of the 

occupants, as well as an investment in the protection of 

the building from the damaging effects of excessive indoor 

humidity. 

6.  Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by 

qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes 

and standards, including fire-rated construction. 

7.  When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage 

electrical wiring and hidden utilities.  

Caution                                              

1.  For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust 

hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

2.  Automatically operated device. To reduce the risk of injury, 

disconnect from power supply before servicing.

3.  ZRT

®

 is acceptable for use over a tub or shower when 

installed in a GFCI-protected circuit. If wired directly to the 

fan or ZRT

®

, a single Ground Fault Protector on the 120 VAC 

common power supply must be used to protect all devices 

on the same circuit.

System Design                                             

Satisfactory performance of a central ventilation system requires: 

• 

Proper integration of all the components, compatible grilles,  

 

and wall/roof caps; 

•   

Proper duct design for friction losses; 

•   

Consideration of acoustic and vibration properties of the fan  

 

and its mounting;

•   

Acoustic properties of the grilles; 

•   

Consideration of the mode of operation, whether continuous  

 

or automatically controlled by dehumidistat, timer, or  

 

occupancy sensor; 

•   

Installation in a heated or unheated space, with consideration  

 

for the potential of condensation in the ducting or fan housing. 

Inspect the carton upon receipt to ensure the terminal has not 

been damaged in transit. If damaged, it is the responsibility of 

the recipient to file a damage claim with the carrier. ALDES is not 

responsible for damage incurred during shipment.

Handle the unit with care to prevent damage to the housing and 

other components. Store the unit indoors if possible. If outdoor 

storage is required, protection against moisture and dirt is 

necessary.

Clean the grille monthly (if so equipped).
