Your inline duct fan must be connected to a 120 volt ac, 60Hz fuse or circuit breaker protected power source only in
a manner approved by all applicable codes. Never connect your inline duct fan to a 240 volt ac blower motor or other
240 volt system. Note: HomeAire is not responsible for alternative wiring methods performed by the purchaser of this
product.
The ground wire (green) must be terminated at the furnace or other suitable ground. The power source must be
protected by a fuse or circuit breaker rated at a minimum of 15 amperes.
Operating range is 40°F (4°C) to 140°F (60°C). Exposure to temperatures outside this range voids the warranty.
GENERAL INSTALLATION NOTES
For maximum performance and minimum noise, the best location to install your inline duct fan is 6-10 feet from the
register that needs the boost.
To prevent air leaks use good quality duct tape to seal seams in ductwork after installing the inline duct fan. By
utilizing tapered reducers you may install larger diameter duct fans in smaller diameter ducts.
Always leave your inline duct fan accessible for maintenance, cleaning or repair.
