Instructions / Assembly

1b. Internal Wire Compartment: If the motor is already installed in the housing, remove the
two screws holding the blower assembly in place. Lift up on the assembly and slide it
out of the tabs on the housing (Figure 6). Remove the wire compartment cover screw
and place the cover in a secure place (Figure 7).
NOTE: If the fan motor plug is connected to the fan housing receptacle, unplug so the blower
assembly can be completely removed.

2. Continuous Ventilation: For two speed fans wired for continuous ventilation, connect the
White wire of the fan to the White (Neutral) wire from the power source. Connect the ground
wire from the house to the green wire from the fan housing. Connect the Black wire of the
fan to the Black wire (Hot) from the power source. Using a properly grounded standard
switch (not included) connect the Black wire from the supply to the switch. Connect the
Red wire (light) from the fan housing to the other side of the top switch and connect the
Purple wire (night light) from the fan housing to the other side of the bottom switch. Using a
second properly grounded standard duplex toggle switch, connect the Hot Yellow wire from
the fan to the input of the switch. Connect the second Yellow wire from the fan to the output
side of the switch. Closing the switch will change from normal to high speed (Figure 8).

3. For two speed fans wired for continuous ventilation, connect the White wire of the fan to
the White (Neutral) wire from the power source. Connect the ground wire from the house
to the green wire from the fan housing. Connect the Black wire of the fan to the Black
wire (Hot) from the power source. The fan will operate on low speed continuously and
boost to high speed when motion is detected. Using a properly grounded standard switch
(not included) connect the black wire from the supply to the switch. Connect the red wire
(light) from the fan housing to the other side of the top switch and connect the purple wire
(night light) from the fan housing to the other side of the bottom switch. A manual override
switch (not included) can be used to provide a manual fan Off function (Figure 9).
Humidity Sensing Models
4. For two speed fans wired for continuous ventilation, connect the White wire of the fan
to the White (Neutral) wire from the power source. Connect the ground wire from the
house to the Green wire from the fan housing. Connect the Black wire of the fan to the
Black wire (Hot) from the power source. The fan will operate on low speed continuously
and boost to high upon a rise in humidity. Using a properly grounded switch, connect
1 yellow wire to each side of the switch. Closing the switch will change from normal
to high speed. Using a properly grounded standard switch (not included) connect the
Black wire from the supply to the switch. Connect the Red wire (light) from the fan
housing to the other side of the top switch and connect the Purple wire (night light)
from the fan housing to the other side of the bottom switch. A manual override switch
(not included) can be used to provide a manual fan Off function (Figure 10).
NOTE: The yellow wire may contain a wire crimp nut which will have to be cut off and
the wire stripped.
5. Carefully tuck wire back inside wire compartment and replace wire compartment cover
securing with the screw that was removed earlier.
NOTE: The fan’s receptacle wires might need to be pulled outside compartment for connection.
Only pull the five loose wires outside of compartment. Additional wires will be present.
NOTE: Unit must be grounded according to all local and national codes.
SECTION 6
Completing the Installation
1. Use a sealant appropriate for contact with the building materials present and for the
temperature requirements of the installation to prevent air leakage from unconditioned
spaces is recommended. If gaps between unit housing and ceiling are great, additional
material (backing rod, ceiling material) may be required.
NOTE: This fan is rated for direct insulation contact (Type IC) and it is recommended that this fan
be completely covered by insulation in order to reduce heat loss or gain to unconditioned space.
