3. WIRING

NOTE:

 Wiring Diagrams are for examples ONLY. Wiring should be done by an experienced 

electrician.

NOTE:

  Your fan may have come with the thermostat pre-wired to a power cord. If this is the case, 

simply mount the thermostat or junction box, find a power source in your attic, and plug the 
fan in. If you would like to hard-wire the fan, or it is required by your local building codes, please 
follow the wiring instructions below. 

3.1.  Specialty Fan Wiring - Smart

The Smart Attic Fan has the thermostat and humidistat built into the motor. This makes the installation extremely 
simply.

1. 

For this installation, you will need a 2 wire Romex. 

2. 

Open up the junction box from the fan. Remove the power cord. Bring your 2 wire Romex from the power 
source into the junction box. 

3. 

With a wire nut, tie the white common wire together. Then tie the black wires together. 

4. 

Ground the green wire from the fan and the ground wire from the Romex to the junction box. 
 

NOTE:

 When the Smart Attic Fan is connected to power for the first time, it will start in test mode. 

It will run for 60 seconds to ensure it runs properly. After 60 seconds, if the temperature is in 
operating range (as shown on page 11), the fan will continue to run. If the temperature is not in 
operating range, the fan will shut off. If the fan does not come on the first time it is connected to 
power, there may be a problem with the wiring. Please contact us if you have any issues.
