2.4 Installing GA (Garage Attic) model fans
VERY IMPORTANT: MINIMUM OF 26” CLEARANCE REQUIRED ABOVE CEILING FOR
INSTALLATION OF GA MODEL FANS. ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL BUILDING CODES.
1. Determine in which area you would like to install your QuietCool Garage Attic Fan. Now it’s time to find
the exact location using a stud finder. Locate the ceiling studs and mark the location for the fan to be
installed. (see Figure 2.4A on pg. 9) One side of the cut out should be directly next to a wood member
for proper fan mounting and support.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: It is very important that you install the RM fans correctly, as shown in
the following diagrams, as it will dramatically affect the sound level of the fan. NEVER install the
ceiling grille directly underneath the fan. Always offset at least two feet.
