Remember that you must fasten the damper

box to the ceiling joists AND drywall. The purpose of
this is to make sure the damper box stays in place when
you are screwing in the grille. If you do not fasten the
damper box to the drywall, the damper box will not stay
in place when attempting to screw in the grille. (See
Figure 2.2F)
9. Remove the removable ceiling grille and screws from its
packaging. Center the grille over the damper box. Install
the grille with the white screws provided by screwing
through the drywall into the flange of the damper box. (See
Figure 2.2G)
NOTE:
To remove grille core for cleaning, use the

provided grille removal tool in the corners of the grille
core. When removing the grille, make sure to hold the
core in place so it does not fall. When ready to put your
grille core back in place, simply push it right into place,
and it will snap in tight.
