TEST THE SYSTEM
Once the damper, pressure switch, and probe is installed. Turn on the range hood to
Probe opening
high speed and confirm that the damper opens. Turn off the hood and check to see if
pointing down
the damper closes.
A qualified HVAC contractor should also ensure the proper operation and venting of all
combustion equipment in the home.
FALSE TRIPPING
Under certain extreme conditions there could be false tripping of the damper (opening
when the range hood blower is off). If false tripping is encountered, place an in-line
backdraft damper (7" model no. 97, 8" model no. 438, 10" model no. 421) between the
probe and the roof or wall cap.

MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is necessary to ensure the proper operation of the Damper system.
Failure to conduct such routine maintenance can jeopardize the ability of the Damper to
introduce fresh air into the home. Regular maintenance should include the following activi-
ties:
•
Clean the outside bird screen to ensure it is free from debris and open to allow fresh air
to enter.
•
Clean or replace the interior filter(s) which serve to filter fresh air before it enters the
home.
•
Maintain a clear opening at the outdoor end cap, which means preventing the buildup of
snow, leaves, or vegetation at the end cap.
•
During regular HVAC maintenance, have the mechanical contractor inspect the Damper
system for proper operation.
