WIRING
(Refer to Figure 6)
IMPORTANT:
The power to your PRIME Air ventilation fan must disconnect before installation
begins. Be certain all wiring complies with local codes and that the fan unit is properly ground.
1. Run power leads from the wall switch, sensor switch or time switch to the unit.
2. Using the approved wire connectors, connect supply wires to fan wires: black (or brown)
to black (or brown) and white (or blue) to white (or blue). Connected ground wire
(green or bare) to the ground connection in the fan’s junction box.
DUCTING
(Refer to Figure 7)
1. Run 4” round duct from the air discharge opening to the outside of the
building.
2. Smooth sheet metal duct is recommended.
Properly insulate the area around the fan to minimize building heat loss and
gain. Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed over the fan housing in the
attic.
