6. Hang the motor head from the rafters by fastening the
metal strapping that is attached to the motor head to
the rafters with the wood screws. Make sure the power
box on the moter head is at the very top. Secure duct
to damper box using three black sharp screws. Make
sure the duct has a gentle 90 degree bend to help
reduce noise level.
NOTE: Once all of the QuietCool fans are hung,
it’s time to go below and install the ceiling box
and ceiling grill at each intake location.
7. Look through the hole and make sure there are no
kinks or twists in the ducting. Pull the damper box
down through the hole in the ceiling. Fasten the
damper box to either the drywall or the joist in the
attic. While holding it in place, install a 1-3/8” drywall
screw through the drywall into the flange of the
damper box on each side to temporarily hold the
box in place. Remove ceiling grille and screws from
its packaging. Center the grille over the damper box.
Install the grille with the white screws provided by
screwing through the flange of the damper box. Some
ceiling surfaces are uneven and may cause a small
gap to be present. This can easily be caulked later if
excessive.
NOTE: Repeat these steps at each location.
Always fasten the damper box to the joist in
the attic!
8. Return to the attic and go to each location. Using
the nylon straps and the long wood screws provided,
support the duct to the framing. This will stabilize
the entire assembly. Replace any insulation that was
removed. The installation of the fan is now complete.
