Ventilation Requirements
Tastic
®
For maximum efficiency and fan performance there
are a few key points to keep in mind when installing
your Tastic.
Sufficient air inlet into room
Steam will only be removed if there is sufficient flow
of air through the room. Ensure generous inlets exist
through windows, vents or under the door. Air flow
path from inlet to fan should ideally pass over the
steam sources (see Fig. 1).
Adequate ventilation in roof cavity
It is essential that there is adequate space within
the roof cavity so that exhaust air from the Tastic
can dissipate. Where space is restricted, use Fig. 3
as a guide to minimum requirements for adequate
ventilation.
The roof cavity itself should be well ventilated to
outside so that moist air can be removed. Local
building codes may require flueing to outside through
roof or as per Fig. 5 (page 8) for flat roof installation.
Where ventilation space is restricted
This product is not recommended for installation
between floors of multi-storey dwellings, or where
space within the roof cavity is severely restricted and
a flue as per Fig. 5 cannot be fitted. IXL has other
Tastic products available that are particularly suited
to installations between floors or where space is
restricted. Contact your nearest IXL Service Centre
on the numbers located on the back of this booklet.
