7. Install the Blower Motor
NOTE: Refer to the "Before You Begin" section for other detailed requirements for the blower motor
relocation.
At the chosen blower motor location, install a 1-1/2" (38 mm) high block (not supplied) above the
floor to support the blower motor. Select a block of sufficient length and width to support the entire
blower motor.
Fasten the blower motor to the support block with appropriate fasteners (not supplied).
Install the check valve at the blower motor location. The check valve must be oriented vertically.
Confirm that the check valve is oriented with the flow arrow pointing away from the blower motor,
and that it is located no lower than 24" (610 mm) below the bath rim.
Install and support 1-1/2" PVC piping (not supplied) under the floor between the blower motor and
the bath location. Do not connect the PVC piping at either end until instructed.
At the bath, cement a union or other serviceable connection to the coiled blower hose.
Confirm that all wall holes are properly sealed and comply to local building and fire codes.
8. Make Electrical Connections - USA and Mexico
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Connect the blower motor to a properly grounded,
grounding-type receptacle protected by a Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or Residual
Current Device (RCD). Do not remove the grounding pin from the plug. Do not use a grounding
adapter.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect the power before performing the following
procedures.
NOTICE: The blower motor is equipped with a cord and plug. A qualified electrician must install a GFCI-
or RCD-protected, 120 V, 15 A, grounded outlet for the blower. No other load should be on this circuit.
Install an electrical outlet behind the bath, at least 1-1/2" (38 mm) above the subfloor, and within
reach of the 24" (610 mm) power cord.
Plug the blower into the outlet.
