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.

Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and safety standards,

such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the

American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

c) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and

other hidden utilities.

d) Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

e) If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it must be marked as

appropriate for the application and be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter) - protected branch circuit.

2.) Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have

questions, contact the manufacturer.

3.) Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the

service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.

When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a

prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

4.) This ventilation fan is approved for use over a bathtub or shower when installed

in a GFCI protected circuit. Do not use unapproved fans over a bathtub or shower

that are not approved for that application.

5.) Install ductwork in a straight line with minimal bends.

6.) Use 120 V, 60 Hz for the electrical supply and properly ground the unit. Follow

all local safety and electrical codes.

7.) Do not use this fan with any solid-state control device; such as a dimmer switch.

Solid-state controls may cause harmonic distortion, which can cause a motor

humming noise, as well as increase risk of fire or electric shock.

8.) To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not block air entry shield.

9.) Mount with the lowest moving parts at least 8.2 ft (2.5 m) above floor or grade

level.

10.) Never place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.

11.) Type IC for use in direct contact with thermal insulation not to exceed R-50.

12.) Not for use in cooking areas. (See PAGE 5 for details)

13.) This product must properly connect to the grounding conductor of the supply

circuit.

Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards, such

as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the

American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

WARNING: Not suitable for use as a range hood.

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

SHIELD should be installed after the finished ceiling is in place.

When installing in existing construction, use the provided cutout TEMPLATE for the

ceiling. SHIELD edge should overlap finished ceiling.

Not for use in cooking area - see diagram below.

Do not install ventilation fan in areas where the duct work will require configuration

as shown.

There are multiple installation configurations possible for this ventilation fan. Not all

configurations are shown. If your installation requires a variation other than those

shown, consult with a licensed contractor to determine the best installation for your

project. If you are replacing an existing fan, ensure that the new FAN will

adequately cover the existing opening.

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. Insulation around the ducts can reduce energy loss

● and inhibit mold growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their

● rated airflow.

● 4 in (10.16 cm) round is recommended for best performance.

● Ensure duct joints and exterior penetrations are sealed with caulk or other

● similar material to create an air-tight path, to minimize building heat loss and

● gain, and to reduce the potential for condensation.

● Place/wrap insulation around duct and/or FAN in order to minimize possible

● condensation buildup within the duct, building heat loss and gain.

1.) Disconnect the electrical power supply and lock out the service

panel for the existing fan.

2.) Remove the grille from the existing fan. Pull the grille down to expose it’s two

springs. Squeeze each spring together and pull down again to release the springs

from the motor plate slots.

3.) Your existing fan may be attached in several ways. Look for attachment screws

in the ceiling and remove. Your fan may also be attached on the attic side, which

will require you to access it from the attic. Locate attic attachment screws and

remove.

4.) Remove the old fan. This may require cutting and pulling. Wear gloves and

eye protection.

1.) Place the provided sheetrock cutout TEMPLATE on ceiling where you wish the

FAN to be (DAMPER and electrical positions shown on TEMPLATE). We suggest

using painter’s masking tape to hold the template in place while cutting. If there is a

pre-existing fan opening, use aligning windows to find it’s edges. Either cut through

the provided guide slots in the TEMPLATE, or mark your cut lines with a pencil and

remove the TEMPLATE. Use a sheetrock jab saw to cut your fan opening in the

ceiling.
