Description
This adaptor provides an airflow
conduit into the inlet side of the coil
box, furnace or air handler to provide
fresh air into the home. It must be used
in conjunction with the installation of
either a VentilAire III or IV.
Installation - FE / E(-) Furnace
1. The duct adaptor can be attached to
either side of the furnace/coil
cabinet. If the coil box or furnace
does not have the appropriate
3

/2" W x 5" L knockout in the side, it
must be added as shown in Figure 1
and 2. Use sheet metal snips to cut
a 3

/2" x 5" opening in the side.
2. Remove the 3

/2" W x 5" L knockout
from the side of the coil cabinet or
furnace where the VentilAire duct
will enter.
duct to the side of the cabinet. Align
duct top flange along the 7

penciled line for coil cabinet installa-
tion or (3
3
/4" penciled line for
912228- installations), then push the
remaining length of duct onto the
cabinet placing the side flange
along the

/2" penciled line. Attach one #10
sheet metal screw provided through
the top flange hole into the cabinet
or furnace top pan. Attach 3 more
#10 screws into the 3 remaining
flange holes securing the duct in
place. The other 2 remaining screws
will be used to attach the plastic
inlet air adaptor from the VentilAire
III or IV to the top of the duct.
7. After securing the duct, see
VentilAire III or IV instructions to
complete the system installation. Be
sure both doors are put back on the
furnace and coil box.
3. Remove the front door from both the
furnace and the coil box. Both
furnace and coil box should be even
with each other on the back and
side where the duct will be attached.
4. For coil cabinet application use a
pencil and tape measure, mark a
small line 7

edge of the top pan. Drop down
about 34 inches and mark a second
line 6

the cabinet (See Figures 2 and 3).
5. Be sure both sides of the cabinet
are clean and free of oil or dirt to
assure a firm attachment of the
duct.
6. The duct can now be attached to
the side of the furnace coil box. If
your duct has 2-sided tape applied
to the flanges, carefully peel off the
outer side. The tape will hold the

Installation - Air Handler
1. The duct adaptor can be attached to either side of the air
handler in either the upflow or downflow configuration.
If the air handler does not have the appropriate 31/2"
W x 5" L knockout in the side it must be added as
shown in Figure 4 below. Use sheet metal snips to cut
a 31/2" W x 5" L opening in the side corresponding to
the dimensions shown in Figure 4 below.
2. Remove the 31/2" W x 5" L knockout from the side of
the cabinet where the VentilAire duct will be attached.
3. Be sure to wipe clean the side of the cabinet where the
VentilAire duct will attach.
4. The VentilAire duct can now be attached to the side of
the air handler by locating the top flange 91/2" from the
front of the cabinet and the side flange 83/4" from the
front of the cabinet. For downflow applications the duct
would still mount in the upright postion as shown but
the 31/2" W x 5" L knockout opening will be 15" above
the bottom of the cabinet, as the unit will then be upside
down. Attach one of the #10 sheet metal screws provided
through the top flange hole and into the cabinet. Attach
three more #10 screws into the three remaining flange
holes as shown in Figure 5. The other two screws will
be used to attach the plastic inlet air adaptor from the
VentilAire III or IV at the top of the duct.
5. After securing the duct, see the VentilAire III or IV
instructions to complete the system installation. Be sure
all doors are in place before operating.
