7. Pull the house wires through the hole in the wiring box
cover (7.1). Using the quick connectors, connect the
house wiring from the wall switch to the fan housing (A).
14 AWG is the smallest conductor that should be used
for branch-circuit wiring. Please refer to the wiring
diagrams on page 4 to ensure proper wire connections
are made.
Carefully push the wire connections back into the wiring
box housing and reattach the wiring box cover (7.1).
CAUTION: If your electrical wires do not match the colors
listed, consult a licensed electrician to determine what
each house wire represents before connecting the fan.
8. Connect a 4 in. circular duct to the duct connector (C) on
the fan housing (A), securing it with duct tape or a clamp.
Vent the duct to the outside.
Finish ceiling or wall work. The hole in the ceiling or
wall board should be aligned with the edge of the fan
housing (A).
9. With the wiring and duct connected, insert the fan
housing (A) into the hole in the ceiling or wall board. The
bottom edge of the fan housing (A) should be level and
perpendicular with the ceiling or wall board.
10. Mount the fan housing (A) to the joist or wall stud with
three wood screws (10.1) (not included) through the holes
in the side of the fan housing (A).
The fan housing (A) must be installed flush with the ceiling
or wall board or the grille mounting springs will not be long
enough to insert into the slots inside the fan housing (A).
