Installation Guide

1. Determine the best location for the fan.
2. Select the most convenient electrical knockout and remove it.
3. Determine if you are going to use the internal or external wire
compartment. Remove only one of the wire covers and place it
somewhere safe to be reinstalled later.
4. If the unit is being mounted in existing construction, use the
housing as a template to mark the necessary space on the ceiling
to cut out.
5. Determine the required mounting orientation (fig 1, 2, or 3).
Secure the housing mounting brackets to the top of the joists or
headers.
6. Adjust the height of the fan housing so that it is flush with the
finished ceiling. Secure in place by tightening the fan mounting
brackets inside the fan housing, 4 nuts (10-32).
DUCTING
Note: All ducting must comply with local and national building
codes.
1. Connect the ducting to the fan’s duct collar. Secure in place using
duct tape or a screw clamp. Always duct the fan to the outside
through a wall or roof cap. To ensure maximum air delivery, keep
the length of duct and the number of elbows to a minimum.
ELECTRICAL WIRING
Caution: Make sure the power is switched off before beginning this
installation.
Note: All wiring must comply with local and national codes. You
must ground this unit.
Note: The unit can be controlled with a standard single wall switch
for on/off control.
1. Run wiring from an approved wall switch carrying the
appropriate electrical ratings: one neutral (white), one ground
(green or bare copper), and one hot (black lead connected to the
switch). Secure the electrical wires to the housing with an approved
electrical connector (make sure you leave enough wiring in the box
to make the connection to the fan’s receptacle).
2. From where you have access to inside the fan’s junction box,
connect the white wire from the house to both the fan’s white wire
and connect the black wire from the switch to the fan’s black.
Connect the ground wire from the house to the fan’s green ground.
Use approved electrical wire nuts.
3. Replace the wire cover and secure in place with the screw
removed earlier.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
1. If you removed the blower assembly to install the housing,
replace the blower assembly and secure in place with the 2 nuts
removed earlier. Plug the blower assembly into the receptacle.
2. The fan comes with an optional ceiling mounting flange. You may
install this to seal any gap which exists between the housing and
finished ceiling. This will ensure that no moist air will leak from the
conditioned space to the attic, and will protect against condensation
problems.
3. The ceiling mounting flange is secured to the housing via 2 screws
on the side of the housing, and to the finished ceiling using drywall
screws. (fig 4)
4. Install the grill onto the fan housing.
5. Turn the power back on and test your installation.
