.
Installation work must be carried out by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all local and safety codes including the rules for

Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the
local code authorities.

When installing the ventilation fan in a
new construction site
, install
the main body of the fan and duct work during the rough‑in
construction of the building. The grill should be installed after the
finished ceiling is in place.
When installing in
existing construction
, use the dimensions shown
below to determine the required hole size for the ceiling.
Grill edges should overlap finished ceiling.
NOTE: If installing in existing construction, you must have access
to space above and below the installation location.
If you are
replacing an existing fan
, ensure that the new grill will
adequately cover the existing opening.
Do not install ventilation fan in areas where the duct work will require
configurations shown right.
