• Not where ambient temperatures
are likely to exceed 50°C.
• If installed in a kitchen fans must
not be mounted immediately
above a cooker hob, or eye
level grill.
• If installing in a room containing a fuel
burning device which has a non-balanced
flue, it is the installer’s responsibility to
ensure that there is enough replacement
air to prevent fumes being drawn down
the flue when the fan is operating up
to maximum extract. Refer to Building
Regulations for specific requirements.
• Exhaust air must not be discharged into
a flue used for exhausting of fumes from
appliances supplied with energy other
than electric. Requirements.
• Not suitable for use in possible chemical
corrosive atmospheres.
Installation
What the installer will need.
• 3mm electrician’s screwdriver
and No.1 or 2 Pozidrive
screwdrivers.
If wall mounting the fan, you will also need:
• A 100mm diameter prepared hole.
• An appropriate external Wall Grille and
Ø100mm wall sleeve duct. Kit Ref 91232AW.
If ceiling mounting the fan, you will also
need:
• A 100mm diameter prepared hole.
• Appropriate ancillaries for termination. These
items are available from Xpelair:
1. 3m flexible ducting Ref: 89663AA. If the
duct passes through a cold space use
insulated duct ref: 89847AA.
2. Soffit Grille Ref: 89742AW.
3. XCT100 – Condensation Trap. Ref:
89749AA. Fitted immediately above the
fan, this prevents water ingress due to
condensation forming in the duct above
the fan and running down.
If surface mount wiring the fan, you will
also need:
• Miniature PVC trunking 16mm wide x 8mm
deep to house the cable to the fan.
Installing the isolating switch
and cables.
A means for disconnection in all
poles must be incorporated in
the fixed wiring in accordance with wiring
regulations
• If metal switch boxes are used, earthing
regulations must be followed.
• The cross-sectional area of the supply cord
used should be ranged from 1-1.5mm².
• C4S / C44R / C4PS / C4PR – 2 core, C4TS /
C4TR / C4HTS / C4HTR – 3 core.
• C4TS / C4TR / C4HTS / C4HTR. A wall or
ceiling On/Off switch (with indicator light) is
recommended
1. Check that the electrical rating shown
inside the back-plate matches your mains
supply.
2. Check there are no buried pipes or cables
e.g. electricity, gas, water behind the
switch location (in the wall or above the
ceiling). If in doubt, seek professional
advice.
3. Isolate the mains supply.
4. Lay in the cable from the isolating switch
to the fan location via the on/off switch (if
required). This must be housed in miniature
PVC trunking.
5. Lay in the cable from the isolating switch to
the point of connection to the mains supply.
Warning: Do not make any
connections to the electrical
supply at this stage.
6. Install the isolating switch and on/off switch
(if required).
7. Make all connections within the isolating
switch and the on/off switch (if required).
Wet Rooms: On/Off switch must
be situated so that it cannot be
touched by persons making use of
the bath or shower.
For Australia Only – C4S /C4R / C4PS /
C4PR
Connection to the supply can be made by a
flexible 2-core cable complete with 3 pin plug
for insertion into an approved 10A GPO or
directly wired through an approved 10A wall
mounted surface switch with at least 3mm
clearance between contacts.
For Australia Only – C4TS / C4TR / C4HTS /
C4HTR
These models are permanently connected to
the supply and operation is controlled by a
remote switch. They should be directly wired
to the supply through an approved 10A wall
mounted surface switch with at least 3mm
clearance between contacts.
