chaque ventilateurs doit être installé en
utilisant des techniques d'atténuation du
son appropriées pour l'installation. Pour
les applications de salles de bain et les
applications de ventilation générales, au
moins 8 pieds de conduits exible isolé
doivent être installées entre les grilles
d'évacuation et d'approvisionnement du
ventilateur. Pour les applications de hotte
de cuisinière à distance, où un conduit en
métal est généralement requis par le code
du bâtiment, un atténuateur acoustique en
métal doit être installé entre la hotte et

information
Practical tip
1. Use this unit in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have any questions,
please contact the manufacturer.
2. 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.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must
be done by qualified person(s) in
accordance with all applicable codes and
standards, including fire-rated
construction.
4. 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), and the
American Society for Heating, Refrigeration
and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE),
and the local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling,
do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the
outdoors.
7. 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
GFCIc(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) –
protected branch circuit.
8. NEVER place a switch where it can be
reached from a tub or shower.
9. This fan must be properly grounded.
10. Do not use in the cooking area (Figure. 1).
11. Do not block the air intakes or exhaust.
12. Power supply wiring is to be No. 14 AWG
wire or larger (suitable for at least 90°C
(190°F) ).
13. Not for use outdoors.
14. For lighted units, use only CFL type T4,
26W lamp and a maximum 4 W night
light.
15. The fan must not be installed in a ceiling
with an “R” rating greater than 40.
16. The fan is type IC (Inherently Protected).
17. To reduce the risk of injury, install the fan
at least 7 feet (2.1m) above the floor.
18. Acceptable for use over a shower or tub
when installed in a GFCI protected branch
circuit.
19. The fan should not be turned on or off
rapidly.
20. Do not clean the fan with corrosive
chemicals or water in excess of 60° C
(140° F).
21. If the fan is not operating properly, shut
the power off immediately, and have a
certified installer inspect it and have it
serviced as required.
22. These fan must be mounted to structural
members that are strong enough to
support the fan’s weight.
23. Do not allow foreign objects to enter the
fan; this could result in electric shock or
fan damage.
Caution:
1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use
to exhaust hazardous or explosive
materials and vapors.
2. This product is designed for installation in
flat ceilings only. Do not install it in a
sloping ceiling or in a wall.
3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy
unbalanced impellers keep construction
material / dust from entering the fan.
4. Please read specification label on the
product for further information and
requirements.

Installation
Step 1.
Remove the grille by gently squeezing the wire springs and extracting
them from the slots in the housing.
Step 2.
Remove the wire box cover and install the 3 brackets on the fan housing.

Spacing A on center joist Insert Suspension bracket

Figure 3-1
Figure 3-2
Figure 4
The unit should only be installed in a ceiling. The size of joists should be at
least 2” wide and 4” high . The space between two joists should be 16”.
From the above surface of the suspended ceiling there should be minimum
9” distance to the roof. (Figure 2) Select the suspension brackets as
shown in (Figure 3)
1. When installing, keep the number of elbows and bends to a minimum. If necessary, long radius elbows or bends are recommended.
2. Duct sealant, caulk, or tape should be applied to all seams, including around the opening in the wall or ceiling on the interior and around exterior
building penetrations, to prevent air leakage and maximize air performance.
3. Flex, spiral, or snap lock ducting may be used. If using rigid duct, Fantech FC clamps are recommended to connect duct work to the fan (see
illustration 2). FC clamps make an air tight seal at the connection points and reduce vibrations transmitted throughout the duct system.
4. To minimize static pressure losses and promote adequate airow, minimize duct run lengths where possible. If using ex duct, keep duct runs
straight and taut.
5. If installing in an unconditioned space, covering the fan with insulation is recommended to prevent condensation from forming.
6. For general ventilation applications, at least 8 ft of insulated exible duct shall be installed between the exhaust or supply grille(s) and the fan.
7. A 4 inch rigid duct recommended for best performance.
The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building has a
strong effect on the air ow, 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 air ow.

Step 3.
To install the housing in the ceiling, position it between the joists and
extend the brackets to the adjacent joists.. Mark the screw locations (at
the top of the keyhole on each bracket) on the joists.
The bottom edge of the housing should be flush with the bot-
tom of the joist. (Figure 4)
Step 4.
Remove the housing and drive the screws part way into the joists at the
marked locations. (Figure 5)
Step 5.
Mount the housing using the screws in the joists and then secure them
tightly. Make all the electrical connections in the wire box, per the wiring
diagram, and attach the wire box cover. Attach the discharge duct tightly
onto the fan outlet.
In order for the fan to operate efficiently, keep the discharge
duct as straight as possible. (Figure 6)
Step 6.
To complete the installation, install the lamps (if applicable) and mount
the grille.

Maintenance
1. Turn the power off and lock it out prior to servicing or cleaning.
2. To clean the grille, first remove it from the fan then use a soft brush
and clean water to remove the dirt. If the dirt is not easily removed,
wash with a neutral detergent.
3. In order to remove the impeller and housing for maintenance, first
remove the light, night light and reflector (if applicable). Then unplug
the electrical connection and remove the 4 screws that secure the
fan assembly to the housing. To clean the impeller and housing,
remove the motor and then wash with water or a neutral detergent,
as required.
Keep all electrical components away from water. Do not use
corrosive chemicals or water in excess of 60C (140°F) to
clean plastic parts.
