When the Fan is used to remove air from a room containing a fuel-burning appliance, precautions must be taken to avoid
back-flow of gases into the room from the open flue of gas or other appliance. Ensure that the air replacement is adequate
for both the fan and the fuel-burning appliance.
G.
The Fan should not be used where it is liable to be subject to direct water spray for prolonged periods of time.
H.
Where ducted Fans are used to handle moisture-laden air, a condensation trap should be fitted. Horizontal ducts should be
arranged to slope slightly downwards away from the Fan.
I.

A. INSTALLATION.
The unit is designed as an in-line duct fan to be positioned between lengths of ducting. Short duct runs terminating close to the
fan (i.e. within 1.5m) must incorporate suitable guards unless the fan is mounted higher than 2.1m above the floor. If flexible
ducting is used it should be fully extended to obtain the best results. Position the fan at the highest point on the system with both
ducting runs sloping downwards from this point. In circumstances where an excessive amount of moisture is present in the air
then a condensation trap should be installed. When siting the appliance ensure that there is sufficient space to allow access for
any servicing and maintenance.
