Installation and Operating Instructions

   

VENTILATION FAN 

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

   

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

 

1.

 

Make sure that the electric service supply voltage is AC 
120V, 60Hz. 

2.

 

Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as 
the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the 
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act). 

3.

 

Always disconnect the power source before working 
on or near the ventilating fan, motor or junction box. 

4.

 

Protect the power cord from sharp edges, oil, grease, 
hot surfaces, chemicals or other objects. 

5.

 

Do not kink the power cord. 

6.

 

Do not install the unit where ducts are configured.   
(Fig. A ). 

7.

 

Provide suction parts with proper ventilation. 

8.

 

This unit is UL Listed for use over a bathtub or shower 
when installed in a GFCI protected branch circuit. 

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 questions, contact the 
manufacturer. 

2.

 

Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at 
the service panel and lock the service disconnecting 
means to prevent the 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.

 

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by 
a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable 
codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.   

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 guideline 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 local code 
authorities. 

5.

 

When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling, do not 
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities. 

6.

 

Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors. 

7.

 

If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it 
must be marked as appropriate for the application and 
be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit 
lnterrupter) ---protected branch circuit. 

8.

 

Do not use this unit with any other solid-state control 
device. Solid-state control device may cause harmonic 
distortion, which can cause a motor humming noise. 
(Avertissement: ne convient pas à des régulateurs de 
vitesse à semi-conducteurs). 

9.

 

NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a 
tub or shower. 

10.

 

Not to be installed in a ceiling thermally insulated to a 
value greater than R50. (This is required for installation 
in Canada only). 

11.

 

Do not open/disassemble the LED light engine 

Turning angle too large

Duct shrink

Too many elbows

CAUTION 

1.

 

For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To 
Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive Materials And Vapors. 

2.

 

Not for use in cooking areas. (Fig. B) 

3.

 

This product must properly connect to the grounding 
conductor of the supply circuit. 

4.

 

To reduce the risk of injury to persons, install the fan at 
least 8.2 feet (2.5m) above the floor.

PREPARATION 

Tools Required for Assembly (not included): Hammer, 
Flathead Screwdriver, Wire Nuts, Nails, Duct Tape, Phillips 
Head Screwdriver, and Utility Knife. 
Helpful Tools (not included): Electric Drill, Drill Bits.

 

 

WARNING: Turn off electricity at breaker 
box before beginning installation.

 

 

Carefully remove unit from carton. 

 

Check area above installation location to be sure that 
wiring can run to the planned location and that duct 
work can be run. Make sure the area is sufficient for 
proper ventilation. 

 

Inspect duct work and wiring before proceeding with 
installation. 

 

Before installation, provide inspection and future 
maintenance access at a location that will not interfere 
with installation work. 

 

You may need the help of a second person to install 
this fan: one person on the attic side and one on the 
room side. 

Note: Installations may vary depending on how the 
previous bath fan was installed. Supplies necessary for the 
installation of your bath fan are not all included. However, 
most are available at your local home improvement or 
hardware store. 

 

Proper insulation around the fan to minimize building heat 
loss and gain. The ducting from this fan to the outside of the 
building has a strong effect on the air flow, 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 flow. 

 

Locate unit above (GFCI-protected circuit required) or 
within 5 feet of the shower head.   

 

Locate unit away from heating or cooling sources 
which can affect humidity levels. 

 

Do not locate near window. Unit may respond to the 
outdoor humidity level. 

 

Unit must be installed in ceiling to properly sense 
moisture. 

 

Locate unit only on flat ceilings up to 12 feet high for 
proper sensing. 

 

Use a roof cap or wall cap that has a built-in damper to 
reduce backdrafts. 

 

External timer can be used in conjunction with single-
speed mode only, please contact Delta Breez customer 
service and consult with a licensed electrician for 
compatibility.

 

 

 

External dimmer can be used in conjunction with LED 
light model, please contact Delta Breez customer 
service and consult with a licensed electrician for 
compatibility.
