MAINTENANCE (CLEANING) CONTINUED
1. Remove grille by pulling down one mounting
spring (Fig.13), then pull down the other. (Pull
down the mounting spring that without lead wire
passed side, and remove motion sensor as
shown in Fig.14) (Squeeze mounting spring and
pull down carefully)
2. Clean grille. (Don't put into hot water. Use
non-abrasive kitchen detergent, wipe dry with
clean cloth) (Fig.15)
3. The grille should be dry after cleaning.
4. Remove dust and dirt from fan body using a
vacuum cleaner. (Fig.16)
5. Using a cloth dampened with kitchen detergent,
remove any dirt from fan body. Wipe dry with
clean cloth. (Fig.17)
6. Reinstall grille.
PRACTICAL GUIDE TO INSTALLATION
Properly insulate the area around the fan to
minimize building heat loss and gain. (Fig.18)
Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed
directly over the fan housing in the attic.
Our fans does not create excessive heat that
is a common problem with recessed light
fixtures or some competitor's fan/light
combination. Our efficient, cool-running
motors do not create enough ambient heat
to be subjected to these limitations.
The ducting from this fan to the outside of
the building has a strong effect on the air flow,
noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest,
straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller
ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold
growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their rated air flow.
