A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified
person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,
including fire-rated construction.
B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of
gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to

IMPORTANT: For every 300 CFM of fan performance, a minimum
of one square foot of inlet space in attic or crawl space is
necessary for proper operation. Inlet areas should be located as far
from fan location as possible, such as in the eave or side walls.
MOUNTING THE FAN
IMPORTANT: If the fan will be mounted on a flat roof, make a curb
on which to mount the fan; the fan must be above the level of the
roof's water line.
READ & SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Determine the location of the fan. Place the unit on top of the
shingles as close to the center of the roof as possible and near the
ridgeline. For best appearance, the unit should be mounted on the
back side of the house and should be visible only on one side of
the roof. This will require that the unit be moved down slightly from
the ridgeline.
2. When the desired location is established, locate a center line
between two rafters and drill a small hole through the roof from the
inside. This hole will be used as a center for the following
operations.
3. Draw a reference square on 25
drilled hole as a center. Within the square, draw a 17
circle. Cut and remove the shingles, nails and felt within this circle.
Draw and cut a 14 7 ⁄ " diameter hole through the decking.

4. With the lettering of the unit parallel to the ridgeline, slide the top
flange of the unit up under the shingles (some roofing nails may
need to be removed). Position the unit on the reference square
previously drawn to align the exhaust openings. With the unit
located, apply a generous amount of roofing compound between
the flange and shingles approximately 1" in from perimeter of
flange. Secure with galvanized roofing nails. Follow the nailing
pattern shown.
MOUNTING THE THERMOSTAT/
OUTLET BOX
IMPORTANT: Do not mount outlet box near heat source.
1. Mount the outlet box to a nearby rafter so that the outlet box is
higher that the fan motor.
