 WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO 
PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

•  Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have 

questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number 
listed in the warranty.

•  Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and 

lock the service disconnecting means to prevent 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 the local code authorities.

•  When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not

damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

•  Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

•  Do not use this unit with any additional solid-state speed control device.

•  To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

•  This unit must be grounded.

•  As an alternative, this product may be installed with the UL-approved cord 

kit designated for the product, following instructions packed with the cord 
kit.

•  When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation 

and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements prevail 
on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform to these at 
his own expense.
