8. Sufficient air supply is required for proper combustion and the exhaustion of gases through the chimney (flue) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back-drafting. See the standards of NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and ASHRAE (American Society for Heating

Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers) and the local building code authorities.

9. Do not use this fan with any solid state control device, such as a remote control, dimmer switch, or certain timers. Mechanical timers are not solid state devices.

Typical Installation

The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building has a strong effect on the air flow, noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their rated air flow.

Power consumption: 8.0 W

Care and Maintenance

WARNING: Disconnect power supply before servicing.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause

The CFM is too great.

The fan seems louder than it should.

The damper is damaged or not working properly.

The bend in the duct is too close to the fan discharge.

The fan discharge is reduced to fit a smaller duct.

The fan body is not attached securely.

There is insufficient airflow intake in the room.

There is insufficient CFM.

The fan is not clearing the room.

Solution

Be sure the CFM rating on the fan matches the square footage of your room.

Check the damper to ensure it is opening and closing properly. If the damper has become damaged, please call

Customer Service.

Be sure you do not have any sharp bends in the duct closer than 18 in. to the fan discharge.

Use the recommended size ducting to reduce fan noise.

Be sure the fan is securely attached to the ceiling joists.

Be sure a door or window is slightly ajar or opened to allow airflow. The fan is not able to draw air out of the room without enough airflow to draw from.

Be sure the CFM rating on the fan matches the requirements for your room size.

NOTE: Using a tissue is not the correct method for determining if the fan is operating properly. If the fan clears steam from the room within approximately 15 minutes of completeing your shower, then the fan is operating properly .
