• At least 110mm from the edges of
the mounting surface to the centre
of the hole.
• As far away as possible from and opposite to

are likely to exceed 50°C.
• If installed in a kitchen fans must
not be mounted immediately above
a cooker hob, or eye level grill.
• If installing in a room containing a fuel
burning device which has a non-balanced

to prevent fumes being drawn down the flue
when the fan is operating up to maximum
extract. Refer to Building Regulations for
specific requirements.
• Exhaust air must not be discharged into
a flue used for exhausting of fumes from
appliances supplied with energy other than
