Remote blower installation in one of the following three options:
Make sure that the discharge end of the remote blower faces away from the direction
of the prevailing winds.
Remove any cardboard packaging from within the blower impeller.
Remove the cover from the remote blower, then remove the wiring box cover and screws.
Attach an appropriate UL Listed strain relief in the knockout. Note: for most
installations, it is recommended that the strain relief be installed so that it can be
tightened from inside the remote blower housing.
Reattach the wiring box cover loosely, it will be removed again later.
Option 1: Wall installation
Choose a location on an outside wall where no wall studs, wires, pipes, etc. run
through the opening area. A minimum distance of 24" (610 mm) from the remote
blower to the ground may be required depending on local code. Make sure to
leave room for anticipated snowfall in your region.
Drill the guide hole in the center of the 11" (279 mm) diameter opening area.
Mark a 27 1/2" x 34" (699 x 864 mm) rectangle on wall as indicated in Fig.19.
Cut a rectangular hole in the siding only. Do not cut sheathing. Nail down all
siding ends.
Mark an 11" (279 mm) diameter circle around guide hole as indicated in Fig.19.
Mark the center of the 1 1/4" (32 mm) diameter hole for electrical wiring as
indicated in Fig.19.
Cut an 11" (279 mm) diameter hole in the sheathing.
Drill the 1 1/4" (32 mm) diameter electrical wiring hole.
Run a large bead of caulk on the back side of the housing along the outer edge.
Center the remote blower ring in the 11" (279 mm) diameter hole, making sure
that the 1 1/4" (32 mm) diameter electrical wiring hole lines up with the hole in the
wiring box.
Attach the remote blower to the wall using screws appropriate for your
installation. All four holes in the back panel must be filled to prevent moisture that
may get inside the remote blower housing from leaking into the home.
Seal all around the mounting screw heads with caulk.
