PREPARE THE INSTALLATION
LOCATION
.
Locate the blower
on the rear slope of the roof.
Place
it in a location
to minimize
duct run. The
location
should
be free of obstacles
(T.V. leads,
electrical
lines, etc.). Bear in mind, if the blower top
is level with the roof peak, it will not be seen from
the street. Keep this approximate
location in mind
as you work from within the attic.
