Pre-Installation (cont.)
The I-beam adapter can be purchased for hanging the Isis from I-beams.
Big Ass Fans offers both a small and large adapter depending on the
width of the I-beam. The I-Beam Adapter can only be used on I-beams
that are 5" (12.7 cm) to 9-7/8" (25 cm) (small adapter) or 9-7/8" (25 cm) to
14-5/8" (37 cm) (large adapter) in width. It is not recommended to mount
the fan from fabricated I-beams. Consult a structural engineer to ensure
your building structure meets the necessary requirements.
L-brackets can be purchased for hanging the Isis from structural beams,
such as wooden beams. Slots in the brackets allow for solid beams
with thicknesses ranging from 4" (10.2 cm) to 9" (22.9 cm). Consult a
structural engineer to ensure your building structure meets the necessary
requirements.
Specialized brackets can be purchased for hanging the Isis from building
structures consisting of Z-purlins with lengths ≤30 ft and heights ranging
from 8" (20.3 cm) to 10" (25.4 cm), and spaced ≤5 ft apart. Consult a
structural engineer to ensure your building structure meets the necessary
requirements. Note: Angle irons are not supplied.
