INSTALLATION IN EXISTING CONSTRUCTION
Installing the ventilator in an existing house requires an
accessible area (attic crawl space) above the planned installation
location. Review “INSTALLATION IN A NEW CONSTRUCTION”
and follow all instructions which apply to your installation.
Location –
locate ventilator parallel to a ceiling joist.
Wiring and Ducting –
plan ducting and wiring before proceeding
with installation.
Refer to Figure 2 for wiring and Figure 1 for
ducting. CAUTION: Check area above planned installation to
be sure that the ducting can be installed, wiring can be run to
the planned location and that wiring or other obstructions will
not interfere with the installation.
INSTALLATION FROM ACCESSIBLE AREA
ABOVE
1. From below, drill a small hole in ceiling at the planned location.
Stick clothes hanger through hole to help locate it.
2. Locate hole in attic or crawl space.
3. In attic or crawl space, mark ceiling for cutout by using the
housing as a template. The long side of cutout must be parallel
to ceiling joist.
4. Make cutout along marked line.
NOTE: If ceiling is plaster, cutout should be made from
below to avoid chipping plaster.
5. Install housing, connect wiring and ducting, install power
unit/blower assembly and install grille.
