INSTALLER INFORMATION

IMPORTANT: Ducting 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 air flow.
NOTE: Make sure that the outdoor intake hood is easily accessible for
annual maintenance. If located above the first floor, place it close to a
window or balcony to allow ease of access.
Manufacturer reserves the right to change, at any time, specifications and designs without notice and without obligations.
