INSTALLING OPTIONAL EXHAUST SYSTEM
The exhaust from the power unit may be vented
to the
outside,
if desired.
Do
not
vent
exhaust
close to a door or window or where it will disturb
neighbors.
The outside vent should go through the wall about
2' above the floor or ground
level. A sharp 90°
elbow should then be attached outside as close to
the wall as possible with 6" of tubing added
to
direct exhaust downward.
When
power
unit is located
in a room
below
ground level, the exhaust can usually be vented
outside
between
or
at
joist
level.
Measure
carefully the location
desired.
If the exterior is
brick, carefully chisel away
brick and
mortar to
create an approximate 2-1/2" diameter hole. Then
drill hole into house, install vent pipe and brick to
seal opening.
FINAL SYSTEMS CHECK
Check each wail inlet to be sure contacts activate power unit when hose is inserted. A short piece of
wire can be used to short contacts in a wall inlet together to activate power unit. Check each wall inlet
and tubing connection for air leaks. Check power unit for leaks around inlet tube and dirt receptacle.
