1 Check there are no buried pipes or
cables in the wall or obstructions on the
outside e.g. electricity, gas, water.
Check the orientation of the fan
E
.
2 Mark on the wall the centre of the duct
hole
D
. Allow adequate clearance from
the wall edges.
3 Use this centre to mark a circle to suit
the wall duct (117mm diameter).
If core drill equipment is available:
4a Use as directed by core drill
manufacturer.
If core drill equipment is not available:
4b Drill a centre hole right through the wall.
5 Cut the hole. Do not cut right through the
wall.
(The recommended method is to drill a
series of holes, close together, around
the edge of the cutting line and remove
the brick between the holes with a
chisel).
6 Go outside and cut a hole in the outer
wall, repeating the process described
above.
7 Cut ducting to the correct length if
required.
8 Fit the ducting, Ensure that the duct
slopes down away from the fan to allow
drainage of any incoming rain water to
the outside.
9 Make good the hole. Allow the mortar to
set before continuing the fan installation.
1 Check there are no buried pipes or
cables in the wall or obstructions on the
outside e.g. electricity, gas, water.
Check the orientation fo the fan
E
.
2 Mark on the wall the centre of the duct
hole
D
. Allow adequate clearance from
the wall edges.
3 Use this centre to drill a small hole right
through the wall.
4 Use the centre hole to mark a rectangular
hole for the inner wall using the
dimensions
A
.
5. Cut the rectangular hole through the
inner wall. (The recommended method is
to drill a series of holes, close together,
around the edge of the cutting line and
remove the brick between the holes with
a chisel).
If installing with a controller please refer to
Controller's installation instructions.
1 Check that the electrical rating shown
3
matches your main supply.
2 Check there are no buried pipes or
cables e.g. electricity, gas, water
behind the switch location (in the wall
or above the ceiling.)
3 Isolate the mains supply.
4 Lay in the cable from the isolating switch
to the fan location via the on/off switch (if
required).
5 Lay in the cable from the isolating switch
to the point of connection to the mains
supply.
6 Install the isolating switch and on/off
switch (if required).
7 Make all connections within the isolating
switch and on/off switch (if required).
NOTE: Switches must be situated so that
they cannot be touched by persons making
use of the bath or shower.
WARNING: DO NOT MAKE ANY
CONNECTIONS TO THE ELECTRICAL
SUPPLY AT THIS STAGE.
Connection to the supply can be made by a
flexible 3-core cable complete with 3 pin
plug top for insertion into an approved 10A
GPO or directly wired through an approved
10A wall-mounted surface switch with at
least 3mm clearance between contacts.
These models are permanently connected to
the supply and operation is controlled by a
remote switch. They should be directly wired
to the supply through an approved 10A wall
mounted surface switch with at least 3mm
clearance between contacts.
If working above ground floor level,
appropriate safety precautions must be
observed.
WARNING: EYE PROTECTION MUST BE
WORN DURING ALL DRILLING AND
CHISELLING OPERATIONS.
A hole cutting service is available from
Xpelair. Contact Technical Services for
details (UK only).

and cables
If installing in a wall
(surface mounting)
6 Go outside and cut a 117mm diameter
hole in the outer wall using the small hole
as the centre, repeating the cutting
process described above, or using core
drill equipment if available.
7 Measure the wall thickness.
8 Cut the wall tube so that it is 64mm less
than the wall thickness.
This method requires a space above the
ceiling, such as a loft or attic, to provide
access for 100mm internal diameter
ducting.
1 Mark on the ceiling the centre of the duct
hole
D
. Check there are no ceiling
support beams above the ceiling in the
path of the ducting.
2 Cut a 117mm diameter hole using the
marked centre.
For 100mm diameter ducting:
1 Check there are no ceiling support
beams above the ceiling in the path of
the ducting or in the area of the fan box
5
.
2 Mark a rectangular hole using the
dimensions
B
.
3 Cut the hole.
For flat ducting:
♦
This fan can be installed within a 47mm
void without the circular spigot
7
. Flat
ducting adaptor (FDA, available from
Xpelair is required. Please refer to
separate instruction leaflet for Flat
ducting adaptor.
1 Remove the baffle plate
1
by unclipping
it, using a sideways action.
2 Unscrew the front cover
2
and remove
by allowing it to hinge down from the top
and un-hook from the bottom.
3 Fit the foam tape supplied around the
circular spigot
7
.
1 Place the ducting into the hole and align
to the required position. If wall mounting,
ensure that the ducting slopes down
away from the fan to allow drainage of
any incoming water to the outside.
