GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Make sure that the electric service supply voltage
is AC 120V, 60Hz.
2. Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well
as the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act).
3. Always disconnect the power source before
working on or near the ventilating fan, motor or
junction box.
4. Protect the power cord from sharp edges, oil,
grease, hot surfaces, chemicals or other objects.
5. Do not kink the power cord.
6. Do not install the unit where ducts are confugured
as shown in Fig.A.
7. Provide suction parts with proper ventilation.
8. This unit is UL Listed for use over a bathtub or
shower when installed in a GFCI protected branch
circuit.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer.
2. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the
disconnecting means to prevent the power from
being switched on accidentally. When the service
disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely
fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag,
to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
rated construction.
4.
fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting.
Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s
guideline and safety standards such as those
published by the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA), and the American Society
for Heating Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE) and local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling,
do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden
utilities.
6. Ducted ventilating fans must always be vented to
the outdoors.
7. If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it
must be marked as appropriate for the application
and be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
lnterrupter) – protected branch circuit.
8. Do not use this unit with any other solid-state
control device. Solid-state controls may cause
harmonic distortion, which can cause a motor
humming noise.
9. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached
from a tub or shower.
10. Not to be installed in a ceiling thermally insulated
to a value greater than R40. (This is required for
installation in Canada only).
11. Do not open/disassemble LED light engine.

Helpful Tools (not included): Electric Drill, Drill Bits
before beginning installation.
Carefully remove unit from carton.
Check area above installation location to be sure
that wiring can run to the planned location and
that duct work can be run. Make sure the area is
Inspect duct work and wiring before proceeding with
installation.
Before installation, provide inspection and future
maintenance access at a location that will not
interfere with installation work.
You may need the help of a second person to install
this fan: one person on the attic side and one on the
room side.
Note: Installations may vary depending on how the
previous bath fan was installed. Supplies necessary for
the installation of your bath fan are not all included.
However, most are available at your local home
improvement or hardware store.

Locate unit away from heating or cooling sources
which can affect humidity levels.
Do not locate near window. Unit may respond to the
outdoor humidity level.
Unit must be installed in ceiling to properly sense
moisture.
Locate unit only on flat ceilings up to 12 feet high for
proper sensing.
Proper insulation around the fan to minimize building
heat loss and gain. The ducting from this fan to the
outside of the building has a strong effect on the air
flow, noise and energy use of the fan.
Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for
best performance, and avoid installing the fan with
smaller ducts than recommended. Insulation around
the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold
growth.
Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve
their rated air flow.
Humidity sensing models :
The fan will operate most efficiently when located
where the shortest possible duct run and minimum
number of elbows will be needed.
Locate unit above (GFCI-protected circuit required)
or within 5 feet of the shower head.
Use a roof cap or wall cap that has a built-in damper
to reduce backdrafts.
