Safety Information
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO ASSEMBLE,
OPERATE OR INSTALL THE PRODUCT.
□
Always disconnect the power supply prior to servicing the fan,
motor or junction box.
□
Follow all local building, safety and electrical codes as well
as the NEC (National Electrical Code) and OSHA (Occupational
Safety and Health Act).
□
Electric Service supply must be 120V, 60 Hz.
□
This product must properly connect to the grounding conductor
of the supply circuit.
□
Do not bend or kink the power wires.
□
Do not use this fan with any solid state control device, such as
a remote control, dimmer switch, or certain timers. Mechanical
timers are not solid state devices.
□
Do not install in a ceiling with insulation rating greater than R40.
□
Duct work should be installed in a straight line with
minimal bends.
□
Duct work size must be the same size as the discharge and
should not be reduced. Reducing the duct size may increase
fan noise.
□
This product is not intended for connection to rigid metal
conduit. For use with flexible conduit only.
CAUTION:
For general ventilating use only. Do not use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
CAUTION:
Not for use in kitchens.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, install the
fan at least 7 feet (2.1m) above the floor.
CAUTION:
To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air,
be sure to vent air to the outdoors. Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceilings, or into attics, crawl spaces, or
garages.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons, observe the following:
□
Use this unit in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
If you have any questions, please call customer service.
□
Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the 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.
□
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.
□
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 for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) and local code authorities.
□
When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling, do not damage
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
□
To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to vent
air to the outdoors. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within
walls or ceilings, or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
□
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 Interrupter)-protected branch circuit.
□
This ventilation fan is intended to be installed at least 3 ft. 3-1/4 in.
(1 m) from the showerhead when installing over a bathtub or
shower. Installation within a shower stall is not recommended
for this unit, unless the 3 ft. 3-1/4 in. (1 m) distance can be met.
