1. Mark the cutout area. (See figures 8 and 12 through
14 for dimensions.)
2. Drill holes at the corners of area to be cut out to
permit insertion of saw blade. (See figure 11.)
3. Carefully saw out wall or ceiling area exactly as
marked. Remember the frame flange is only 3/4
inch wide. It will not cover an oversize or irregular
cutout.
4. Figures 12, 13 and 14 show several possible
situations that will be apparent when the cutout is
finished. With standard stud spacing you will run
into either one or two studs. They must be cut and
the section removed at air cleaner location.
5. Install headers all around air cleaner opening (four
sides). This will provide good support of air cleaner
and restore the original wall strength. Use basic
concepts shown in figures 12 through 14 if your wall
differs from the diagrams shown.
NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE: The same method for framing the air cleaner
cutout can be applied to ceiling joists, when a ceiling
installation is required.
6. Cut out required opening in return-air duct. The duct
cutout should fit air cleaner cabinet as closely as
possible. If duct is more than six inches from wall
surface, install a connecting duct between air
cleaner cabinet and existing duct. (See figures 5
and 6.)
7. Slide the frame assembly into the finished cutout.
Make sure it fits properly, then remove it.
* Dimension "A" in figures 12 through 14 are as follows:
1000 CFM = 17"
1400 CFM = 24"
2000 CFM = 29"
