INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
THIS GABLE-MOUNTED UNIT IS DESIGNED FOR ATTICS OF AVERAGE SIZE AND OPERATES MOST EFFICIENTLY WHEN AIR
INTAKES ARE LOCATED AROUND THE EAVES. ALTERNATIVELY, AIR INTAKE MAY BE FROM OPPOSING GABLE VENTS, BUT
NEVER FROM ROOF OR RIDGE VENTS. AT LEAST 600 SQ. IN OF NET FREE AIR INTAKE IS REQUIRED PER UNIT FOR SAFE
AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. THE MOTOR OPERATES ON 120 V, 60 HZ, A.C. CURRENT. SEE MOTOR LABEL FOR
AMPERAGE.
THIS UNIT MAY BE MOUNTED BEHIND ANY STATIC WALL VENT, OR MODELS VX1818 OR CX2121 AUTOMATIC SHUTTERS.
Step 1 Step 3
For new installation or installation behind
existing louvers, using 2 x 4 studs, frame an
opening at least 18 ¼-in square (depending on
stud spacing) on center, on the attic side of the
gable.
Step 2
Cover the opening with a square piece of
plywood, paneling, or sheetrock, at least
21 ¼-in square (depending on stud spacing).
Cut a 15-in diameter hole in the center of this
panel, to allow the shroud of the fan to enter the
hole.
It is important to block off any remaining open
vent area in the gable.
With the nuts and bolts furnished, secure the 4
mounting brackets to the shroud and then
fasten the unit to the frame.
Mounting the long side of the
L brackets with the long side
to the shroud may better fit
your installation
and also help
reduce vibration.
Also, the use of a
sound-dampening
barrier, such as rubber washers or foam
stripping will help
reduce resonance
in the walls. Seal
off any
gaps
around the
fan, in order
for the fan to
function at
maximum
efficiency
.
TIP:
MUCH OF THE PREPARATION, WIRING OF
THERMOSTAT, TESTING, AND MOUNTING TO THE
FRAME CAN BE DONE BEFORE FINAL INSTALLATION IN
THE ATTIC.
FOR INSTALLATION BEHIND TRIANGULAR GABLE VENTS
For installation on triangular gable vents, refer to steps 1-3 on the opposite page and the following
illustrations for references.
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION
WARNING
Before wiring the thermostat, turn the power off at the breaker to avoid electrocution.
Be certain to confirm to all Local Electric Codes and Regulations.
Remove the cover from the thermostat box and use screws to attach the mounting plate to a stud.
When installing the thermostat box, use screws to attach it to the stud to prevent damage to the control.
Leave the back side of the control unobstructed to allow free air circulation behind the box.
Wire the unit to the incoming power supply according to the diagram below.
The thermostat is adjustable. Recommended setting is 90-110 degrees F depending on local
temperatures.
The fan will run as long as the attic temperature remains above the set temperature.
