B. Ensure that the mains supply (Voltage, Frequency and Phase) complies with the rating label.
C. The fan should only be used in conjunction with the appropriate Vent-Axia products.
D. It is recommended that the connection to the terminal box is made in flexible cable or conduit for easy maintenance.
E. The fan should not be sited within 600mm of/or 2250mm above a bath/shower tray, in accordance with the current
I.E.E Regulations for bathrooms.
F. When the fan is used to remove air from a room containing a fuel-burning appliance, ensure that air replacement is
adequate for both the fan and the fuel-burning appliance.
G. Where a fan is used to supply air into a room, ensure that the fan intake is located a minimum of 600mm from any
