Wood Beam Mounting Kit
(For Beams 4-1/2 - 8-7/8 in. Wide)
IMPORTANT:
Structural Engineer of Record (SEOR)
must perform thorough evaluation of mounting structure
and determine final mounting requirements before fan
is installed. Manufacturer is not liable for any problems
that arise as the result of insufficient structure, including
(but not limited to) vibration, noise, or safety hazards.
Product warranty will be voided at manufacturer’s
discretion if structure is deemed insufficient.
Installations must comply with the following
requirements at a minimum, but SEOR may require
more stringent specifications at their discretion:
Do not use the wood beam mounting kit on wood
beams that are less than 4-1/2 inch wide. For
thinner wood beams, span two or more beams
using structural steel angles or unistrut. Refer to
steel truss or unistrut mounting kit instructions.
