PRACTICAL GUIDE TO INSTALLATION Properly insulate the area around the fan to minimize building heat loss and gain. (Fig.18) Loose fill or bat insulation can be placed directly over the fan housing in the attic. Our fans and fan/light combination units do not create excessive heat that is a common problem with recessed light fixtures or some competitor's fan/light combination. Qur efficient, cool-running motors and our fluorescent lamps do not create enough ambient heat to be subjected to these limitations.
