3) Blower Outlets:
90° turns with flexible ducts directly from blower outlets should be avoided at all
costs as they introduce severe restrictions in the air flow. All WEBASTO blowers can be rotated
through 45° steps so as to obtain a straight-line outlet from the blower.
See Figure 6 for approved installation.

4) Transition Boxes:
Transition boxes behind supply air grills essentially serve the following purpose:
Serve as an expansion volume for the air-flow to be reduced in velocity and therefore reduce air noise
when crossing the outlet louvres. It follows therefore that the depth of the transition box is an
important factor to allow dispersion of the air flow. The table (see Figure 7) gives the necessary
information as to the minimum dimensions advisable for such transition boxes.

5) Return Grill Offset:
It is best to avoid placing a return air grill directly opposite the finned coil
surface of an air-handler. This will inevitably allow propagation of direct blower or compressor motor
noise through the grill. Always try to offset the grill so the return air does not flow directly to the coil
inlet. This will lower direct noise propagation significantly.
