FADE Installation Manual 1

Installation

1. FADE units can be mounted at any angle for exhaust ventilation. When planning installation, allow adequate space for blower removal for

service or inspection.

2. Because this unit has rotating parts, safety precautions should be exercised during installation, operation and maintenance.

3. CAUTION: “For General Ventilation Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive Material and Vapors.”

4. Remove unit from package and inspect within 10 days after receipt. If damaged, report damage to carrier. Do Not operate this unit with

visible damage to the blower or impeller assembly.

5. Ensure centrifugal impeller has free rotation. If impeller hits orifice, check screws holding motor bracket. Tighten all screws before operat-

ing unit. WEAR HAND PROTECTION AND STAY CLEAR OF SHARP EDGES.

6. Screen guards must be installed when fan will be within reach of personnel, within (7) feet of the working area, or when advisable for safety.

7. When mounting fan, the inside dimension of the opening should correspond to dimension “D” possibly allowing an extra 1/4”. When using a

louver or damper, provide adequate framing depth to accommodate the fan.

Warnings

DO NOT CONNECT POWER SUPPLY until fan is completely installed. Make sure electrical service to the fan is locked in “OFF” position.

1. All units are suitable for use with solid-state speed control.

2. WARNING! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS – OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

a. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions, contact your manufacturer's

representative.

b. CAUTION: Before installation, servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to

prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent

warning device, such as tag, to the service panel.

c. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and

standards, including fire-rated construction.

d. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent

back drafting. 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 of Heating Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local

code authorities.

e. When cutting or drilling into wall and ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

f. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

g. 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 Interrupter) - protected branch circuit.

h. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.

3. WARNING! Check voltage at the fan to see if it corresponds to the motor name plate.
