PLANNING
Installing a bathroom exhaust fan-light in a finished house
requires at least a small accessible area (attic or crawl space)
above the planned installation location.
Review “INSTALLATION IN A NEW CONSTRUCTION
SITE” AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS WHICH APPLY
TO YOUR INSTALLATION.
LOCATION:
Locate fan-light next to a ceiling joist.
WIRING AND DUCTING: Refer to Figures 5 and 6 for
wiring and to Figure 4 for ducting.
Plan ducting and wiring
before proceeding with installation.
CAUTION: Check area above planned location to be sure
that:
(1) Ducting can be installed or that area is sufficient for
proper venting. The ceiling joists should run toward an
outside wall.
(2) Wiring can be run to the planned location.
(3) No wiring or other obstruction might interfere with
installation.
INSTALLATION
1. The fan light must be mounted to a ceiling joist. Decide
where you want to locate the fan-light and then determine
if there is a ceiling joist near.
LOCATING JOIST:
Lightly tap the ceiling. A hollow sound
means no joists, a solid sound means a joist is present. To
be sure you have located a joist, drill a small hole (
1
⁄
16
") and
probe into the ceiling with a wire. Leave wire in hole to help
locate it in the attic or crawl space.
2. Locate hole in attic or crawl space. Make sure hole is
within 9" of joist.
3. From below, saw a line from hole to joist.
4. Using the housing as a template, mark the ceiling for the
cutout. Cutout dimensions: 9
1
⁄
8
" x 9
1
⁄
8
". One side of cutout
must be right next to joist.
5. Make cutout along marked line.
6. In attic or crawl space, run 4" round duct from outside to
cutout location.
7. Run wiring to cutout location.
8. Place housing into cutout and secure housing to joist.
Make sure housing is flush with finished ceiling. Connect
duct.
9. From below, connect wiring. Install power/blower unit,
grille/reflector assembly, fluorescent lamp and lens.
