What the installer will need
If window mounting the fan, you
will also need:
If wall mounting the fan, you will
also need:
Where to locate the fan
�
4 mounting fasteners (use fasteners
suitable for wall type. Recommended
screw size for standard brick - No.8 x
38mm Pan Head).
�
Locate it as high as possible.
�
At least 145mm from edge of the wall/
window frame to the hole centre (see
Fig. A.).
�
As far as possible from and opposite
to the main source of air replacement
to ensure airflow across the room
(eg, Opposite an internal doorway).
�
Near the source of steam or odours.
�
Not where ambient temperatures
are likely to exceed 50 degrees C.
�
If installed in a kitchen, fans must
not be mounted immediately above
a cooker hob or eye level grill.
�
If installing in a room containing a
fuel burning device, which has a
non balanced flue, it is the
installers responsibility to ensure
that there is enough replacement
air to prevent fumes being drawn
down the flue when the fan is
operating up to maximum extract.
Refer to Building Regulations for
specific requirements. Exhaust air
must not be discharged into a flue
used for exhausting fumes from
appliances supplied with energy
other than electric.
Requirements of all authorities
concerned must be observed for
exhaust air discharge and intake
flow rates.
� When intended for use in possible
chemical corrosive atmospheres,
consult our technical service
department. (For overseas markets
contact your local Xpelair
Distributor).
�
This electrical product, if installed
in a shower room or bathroom,
must be situated so that it cannot
be touched by persons making use
of the bath or shower.
1. Check that there are no buried
pipes or cables (eg. electricity, gas,
water) behind the switch location
(in the wall or above the ceiling).
2. Lay in the cable from the isolating
switch to the fan location via the on/
off switch (see Fig.E1), SW1 (see
Fig.E2.) and external boost SW1 (see
Fig.E3) if required.
3. Lay in the cable from the isolating
switch to the point of connection to
the mains supply.
WARNING: DO NOT MAKE ANY
CONNECTIONS TO THE ELEC-
TRICAL SUPPLY AT THIS STAGE.
4. Install the isolating switch and the on/
off switch (see Fig.E1), SW1 (see
Fig.E2) and external boost SW2
(see Fig.E3) if required.
5. Make all connections within the
isolating switch and the on/off switch
if required.
Note: When installed in a bathroom
all switches must be of a pull cord
type and must be situated so that
they cannot be touched by persons
making use of the bath or shower.
