INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
AT SERVICE PANEL BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.
SECTION 1
Preparing the Exhaust Fan
1. Unpack fan from the carton and confirm that all pieces are present. In
addition to the exhaust fan you should have:
1 - Grill with Light Lens
1 - Damper Assembly (attached)
1 - Mounting Bracket
1 - LED Lamp
1 - Hardware Bag
1 - Electrical Connector
4 - Wire Nuts
1 - Instruction/Safety Sheet
2. Remove the wire compartment cover and store in the carton until
needed so it does not get damaged or lost (Figure 1).
Figure 1
3. Choose the location for your fan. To ensure the best air and sound
performance, it is recommended that the length of ducting and the
number of elbows be kept to a minimum, the radius of each elbow be
as large as possible for the installation, and that insulated hard ducting
be used. Larger duct sizes will reduce noise
and airflow restrictions.
4. Select the most convenient electrical
knockout and remove using a straight-
blade screw driver (Figure 2).
5. No additional vibration deadening materials
are needed for this fan.
SECTION 2
New Construction
1. Using the gauge on the mounting bracket, line up the bracket on the
joist so the bottom of the fan will be flush with the finished ceiling.
Nail or screw the bracket in place securely (Figure 3).
Figure 3
2. Snap the fan body into the bracket (Figure 4). The fan can be
snapped into position with the duct collar facing to the left or the right
depending which is most convenient.
