POSSIBLE CAUSE
CFM too great
Damper not working properly or
damaged
Bend in duct too close to fan discharge
Fan discharge reduced to fit smaller
duct
Fan body not securely attached
Insufficient intake airflow within room
Insufficient CFM
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Be sure the CFM rating on the fan
matches the size of your room
Check damper to ensure it is opening
and closing properly. If the damper
has become damaged, please call
Customer Service
Be sure you do not have any sharp
bends in duct closer than 18 in. to the
fan discharge
Use recommended size ducting to
reduce fan noise
Be sure the fan is securely attached
to your ceiling joists
Be sure a door or window is slightly
ajar or opened to allow airflow. The
fan is not able to draw air out of the
room without enough airflow to draw
from
Be sure the CFM rating on the fan
matches the requirements for your
room size
NOTE: Using a tissue is not an
accurate method for determining if
the fan is operating properly. If the
fan clears steam from the room
within approximately 15 minutes of
completeing your shower, then the
fan is operating properly
