2. Determine the location for your damper box. Ensure that the duct

will t with an adequate bend.

3. Go up into the attic to mark the exact location for the damper box.

Take the cardboard cutout template and a small screwdriver with

you. Make sure the template ts between the framing.

4. When you have chosen your exact spot, place the provided template

on the spot and mark it at each corner by pushing the screwdriver

through at each corner to make a hole so that you can nd it from

below. (See Figure 2.2B)

5. From below, place the cutout template on the ceiling, making sure

that you have at least 2 inches of clearance all around it. While

holding the template in place, mark its outline with a pencil. (See

Figure 2.2C)

6. Using a drywall saw or similar device, cut out the hole in

the ceiling. (See Figure 2.2D)

NOTE: The QuietCool Damper Box includes removable anges in

the case that you are installing the damper box between studs

that are exactly 16” on center. To remove the anges, simply take

a screwdriver and pry between the ange surface and the damper

box. Do this along the entire edge of the ange and it will pop

off.

NOTE: If installing 24” on center, remove one of the longer side

anges and position that side of the damper box against one of

the joists.

IMPORTANT: The damper box ange is designed to sit on the

backside of the drywall, inside the attic. Do not attempt to

install the damper box with the anges on the outer side of the

drywall in the home.

7. Go back into the attic and set the damper box over the hole in the

ceiling. Using the duct clasp, connect the duct to the damper box.

(See Figure 2.2E)

8. Wrap the duct strap around the duct and attach to the attic rafter.

Make sure there are no kinks in the ducting. (See Figure 2.2F)

9. From inside the home, fasten the damper box to the drywall and

the joist in the attic using drywall screws. (See Figure 2.2G and

2.2H)
