Avoid Back drafts
Care should be taken to avoid back drafting combustion appliances that are
installed in the conditioned space. It is strongly recommended that combustion
appliances NOT be installed in such a manner that they use room air for
combustion. Whole house fans are capable of pulling large quantities of air
from the home and particularly if not enough windows are open. This could
easily back draft gas appliances located inside your home.
Look through the hole and make sure there are no kinks or twists in the
ducting. Pull the ceiling box down through the hole in the ceiling. While
holding it in place, install a 1-3/8” drywall screw through the drywall into the
box on each side to temporarily hold the box in place.
Remove ceiling grill and screws from its packaging. Center the grill over the
ceiling box. Install the grill with the white screws provided by screwing
Some ceiling surfaces are uneven and
may cause a small gap to be present. This can easily be caulked later if
excessive.
Wiring Options
Return to the attic and go to each location. Using the nylon straps and the pan
head screws provided, support the duct to the framing. This will stabilize the
entir e assembly.
Replace any ins ulation that was removed. The installtion is now complete
except for the electrical wiring.
Once all of the QuietCool fans are hung, it’s time to go below and install the
ceiling box and ceiling grill at each intake location.
