” x 10” rectangular ducting.
If a 7” round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round
transition adaptor must be used*. Do not use less than a
7” diameter duct.
Duct length:
The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building has
a strong effect on the air flow, noise and energy use of the
fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for
best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller
ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can
reduce energy loss and inhibit mold growth. Fans installed
with existing ducts may not achieve their rated air flow.
WARNING –
TO REDUCE THE RISK
OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and
standards, including fire-rated construction.
B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting
of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment
to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as
those published by the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.
When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system
in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit
GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions.
C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
