Due to a variety of potential finish materials, brackets
to mount
DHC™ Plus
need to be fabricated on-site
from suitable materials and attached using self-
drilling fasteners at the dimples provided on the
side of the housing. Suitable flashing, drip edges,
and sealing must be completed in accordance with
good construction practices to weather-proof the
installation.
Care must be taken to fasten the
DHC™ Plus
securely, and the weight of the system must not be
supported by the ducting or air damper assembly.
