Safety Information 1.) WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction. b) Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting.
Planning Your Installation When installing the ventilation fan in a new construction site, install the main body of the FAN and duct work during the rough-in construction of the building. The GRILLE should be installed after the finished ceiling is in place. When installing in existing construction, use the provided cutout TEMPLATE for the ceiling. GRILLE edge should overlap finished ceiling. Not for use in cooking area - see diagram below.
Connecting the Duct ● Install a circular duct to outlet and secure it with duct tape or clamps. ● Install the duct to the outlet with a gradient 1°~2° to the outside as shown. ● ● ● ● ● ● The ducting from this FAN to the outside of the building has a strong effect on the air flow, noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid installing the FAN with smaller ducts than recommended.
