FAN INSTALLATION
Some things to consider when installing the fan and the filter:
• Mount the fan and filter so they sit above any ceiling material - ~200mm above the ceiling.
• Hang the fan and filter with the chain and cable ties provided (e.g. see below image).
• Connect 1m acoustic ducting after the fan, not in between the fan and filter.
• To avoid damage to the electronics, ensure the fan body is placed upright (see below).
• For optimal airflows, keep the duct straight and level with the fan.
• Place the fan away from bedrooms to minimise noise issues.
We recommend positioning the fan and filter close to the manhole for easy access for servicing.
The filter should be checked at least every 12 months, and replaced at least every 2 years or
earlier if necessary.
The fan should fit on the filter directly and does not require any ducting to be placed in
between. However if the construction of the roof does not provide enough space to mount the
fan directly onto the filter, you can use a short piece of ducting (recommended length
<500mm) to connect between the two. This ducting does not have to be acoustic ducting.
