The fan uses a backward-inclined impeller
design that minimizes dust from collecting
on the blades. Each fan is statically and
dynamically balanced at the factory to
eliminate vibration and ensure quiet
operation. The entire motor and fan assembly
is mounted on a drop-down hinged access
panel for simple service and inspection,
and it can be removed from the fan without
disassembling the duct connections.
FAN CONTROLS
The fan can be operated manually or
automatically by a programmable timer,
dehumidistat, or other appropriate electronic
switch device. The fan may also be operated
in conjunction with a variable speed control.
LOCATING AND INSTALLING THE FAN
The compact dimensions and versatile
mounting options permit installation above
drop ceilings, between ceiling joists, or within
a small so
ffi
t location. The fan can be installed
horizontally or vertically.
Use ductwork of a diameter that is the same
as or greater than the diameter of the duct
connectors on the fan.
DUCTING THE FAN
The ducting from this fan to the outside of
the building has a strong e
ff
ect on the air
fl
ow, 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
fl
ow.
ACCESSORIES
Accessories are available to accommodate
one or two bathrooms. Accessories are
included only when ordered as a Single-Port
Bath Fan Kit (SBFK).
PERFORMANCE
Fan air
fl
ow and energy performance are
tested in accordance with HVI procedures.
