SECTION 1
Preparing the Exhaust Fan
1. Unpack fan from the carton and confirm that all
pieces are present. In addition to the exhaust fan
you should have:
1 - Grill
1 - Damper Assembly (attached)
2 - Mounting Brackets
1 - Mounting Flange
4 - 10-32 Nuts
1 - Instruction/Safety Sheet
2. Choose the location for your fan. To ensure the best
air and sound performance, it is recommended that
the length of ducting and the number of elbows be
kept to a minimum, and that insulated hard ducting
be used. Larger duct sizes will reduce noise and
airflow restrictions. This fan will require at least 10"
of clearance in the ceiling or
wall, and will mount through
drywall up to 3/4" thick.
3. Select the most convenient
electrical knockout and
remove using a straight-blade
screw driver
