FAN HOUSING INSTALLATION (DIRECT JOIST MOUNTING OR SUSPENSION BRACKET JOIST MOUNTING)
Check the area above installation location to be sure that:
a.
Ductwork can be run and there is sufficient area for proper ventilation;
b.
Wiring can be run to the planned location (wires from the power supply to the unit should be 12-18
AWG);
c.
There will be accessible to ductwork and wiring for inspection and future maintenance;
d.
No wiring or other obstructions will interfere with installation.
For installation in existing construction:
Installing the fan housing in an existing building requires access (attic or crawl space) in the planned
installation location above the existing ductwork and wiring.
Inspect existing ductwork and wiring before proceeding with installation.
Step 1:
Turn off power source. Review all safety
precautions.
Step 2:
Remove the existing fan.
Step 3:
Measure the opening to ensure it is large
enough to accommodate the new fan housing.
(8-3/5 in. x 8-1/2 in.)
Step 4:
If this fan is not replacing an old fan, be sure
cut a 8-
in. x 8-
in. opening for the bath
fan housing.
Step 5:
Place the bath fan housing next to a ceiling
joist or wall stud. The fan housing should be level and
perpendicular to the joist or stud. Allow for thickness
of the ceiling board used in your application.
Do NOT flush mount to joist. Bottom of fan housing
should be flush with ceiling board.
Step 6:
Mount fan housing to the joist or stud using
long wood screws (
M4*30
) where indicated by arrows
outside fan housing.
