– If fan motor is NOT thermally protected, remote 

overload protection must be installed having adequate rating as to 
voltage, frequency, horsepower, and full load current per phase. 
Where connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time delay fuses. 
For supply connection use wires rated for at least 90°C (194°F).

Sidewall Mounting Installation

1.  Cut an appropriate sized hole in the wall and follow 

manufacturer's instructions on curb installation. 
Mount the curb to the interior of the wall with 
a minimum of eight 3/8-inch fasteners around 
the flange. Caulk and flash the curb to ensure a 
watertight seal.

2.  If unit is equipped with a backdraft damper, it 

should be installed now.

3.  Lift the fan into place. Do NOT support the unit by 

the hoodband during installation.

4.  Orient fan so the grease trough is downward and 

secure fan to curb using a minimum of eight lag 
screws, metal screws or other suitable fasteners.

5.  Follow steps 6 through 12 of General Ventilation 

Installation instructions on page 4.

Wiring

For Vari-Green wiring refer to the Vari-Green Motor 
and Controls Installation, Operation and Maintenance 
Manual for complete wiring and operation instructions.

1.  On the roof surface, cut an appropriate sized hole 

and follow manufacturer’s instructions on curb 
installation. Caulk and flash the curb to ensure a 
watertight seal.

2.  If unit is equipped with a backdraft damper. DO NOT 

install it.

Perform steps 3 - 12 of General Ventilation Installation.

IMPORTANT

The size of the duct must be equal to or larger than 
the inlet opening of the fan.

To comply with NFPA 96, the fan discharge must be a 
minimum of 40 in. 

(1016 mm)

 above the roof surface 

and a minimum of 10 ft. 

(3048 mm)

 from any building 

air intake.

Per NFPA 96, ductwork to an upblast discharge 
exhaust fan must be constructed of and supported 
by carbon steel not less than No. 6 MSG 

(1.52 mm)

 or 

stainless steel not less than No. 18 MSG 

(1.21 mm)

 in 

thickness. Duct must also extend a minimum of 18 in. 

(457 mm)

 above the roof surface.

Ensure that a minimum of 500 ft/min of air velocity 
through the duct is maintained per NFPA 96, clause 
8.2.1.1, 2014 edition and UL 762, Issue #7, clause 6.2, 
October 14, 2013.

The following accessories may be required by 
NFPA 96 depending upon installation: Grease Trap, 
Hinge Kit or Hinged Base, Clean-Out Port, and Vented 
Curb.

Minimum duct velocities must be maintained in 
kitchen exhaust applications. If a speed controller is 
used, ensure compliance with all applicable codes.

Where connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time delay fuses. 
For supply connection use wires rated for at least 90°C (194°F).

INSTALLATION

 – When connecting electrical power to this fan, 

do not restrict motor movement for possible future belt or wheel 
adjustment.

Must be installed in accordance with the requirements to NFPA 96 or 
must have minimum clearances of zero inches to non-combustibles, 
3 inches to limited combustibles, 18 inches to combustibles.
