Installation

Roof Mounting

NOTE: Refer to motor nameplate for wiring procedures.

Refer to switch manufacturer for installation and wiring

procedures.

1. Cut an appropriate sized hole in the roof surface.

Follow curb manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Caulk and ﬂash curb to ensure a water tight seal.

2. Position curb on the roof.

3. Good duct practices should

be followed in accordance

with SMACNA and AMCA

guidelines, NFPA 96 and

any local codes. The

ductwork should extend far

enough above the rooﬂine

to meet the supply unit

once it is installed. See

Figure 2.

4. Before installing supply

unit, apply a sealant

around the perimeter of

the supply duct to isolate

the fan and minimize

vibration. See Figure 3.

5. Use a crane and set of spreader bars hooked to the

factory lifting holes (see Figure 4) to lift and center

the unit on the curb. Use self-tapping sheet metal

screws to fasten unit to the curb.

NOTE: The use of all lifting holes and set of spreader

bars is mandatory when lifting unit.

Always use all four

lifting holes when using a sling.

6. For unassembled units, or when motor and drive is

shipped loose, install the motor and drive package

as shown in Figures 5, 6 and 7.

Wall Mounting

Only size 110 is designed for wall mounting. Do NOT

attempt to wall mount sizes 112, 115, 118 or 120.

1. Refer to the instructions, warnings and notes found

for roof mounting.

2. Masonry Wall. Around the wall opening, install an

angle iron frame at least 2 x 2 x 1/4 inch to match

the inside base dimension of the ventilator. Secure

with lead cinch type anchors with non-ferrous bolts,

not supplied (3 per side). The ventilator should then

be mounted (inlet assembly down) to the mounting

angle with self-tapping sheet metal screws (not

supplied) as shown in Figure 8.

3. Wood Siding. Around the wall opening install a

wooden frame at least 2 x 4 in. to match the inside

base dimension of the ventilator. Secure with

counter-sunk expansion type lag bolts (not supplied,

3 per side). The ventilator should then be mounted

(inlet assembly down) to the mounting frame with

square head wood screws (not supplied) as shown in

Figure 8.

NOTE: The actual size of the wall opening is

determined by the duct size.

4. Any mounting ﬂange connection between the wall,

mounting ﬂange and the ventilator, should be coated

with a suitable caulking compound or approved

waterproof mastic sealer to prevent water leakage

into the ventilator.

5. It is recommended to install the unit with the inlet

assembly installed in a horizontal position (left or

right install conﬁguration only). The inlet assembly

must be rotated so that the ﬁlters point in a

downward conﬁguration, as shown in Figure 8.

Motor and Pulley Mounting

NOTE: For UL listed units, the motor used with this fan

must be designated as such by the Manufacturer.

1. Secure motor to plate using hardware provided.

Holes will align when the motor frame (shaft end) is

ﬂush with the edge of the motor plate. See Figure 9.

2. Mount pulleys on shafts securing to shaft with set

screw. Check pulleys for proper alignment. Refer to

Figure 10. Misaligned pulleys lead to excessive belt

wear, vibration, noise and blower loss.

3. Install the belt and adjust the tension to allow

for 1/64 inch of deﬂection per inch of span when

moderate thumb pressure is applied to the belt. Too

much tension will cause excess bearing wear and

noise. Too little tension will cause slippage at startup

and uneven wear. Refer to Figure 11.

4. Adjust RPM to desired level using a variable pitch

pulley. After adjustment, motor amperage should be

checked to avoid overloading of the motor.
