    2. TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS Use the following illustrations as guidelines to help you decide on how the unit will be installed. All the units should be hung from the joists. If required, bathroom fans and a range hood may be used to exhaust stale air. Also, for homes with more than one level, we recommend one exhaust register at the highest level.
