CONSTRUCTION

PLANNING

Installing a bathroom exhaust fan-light in a finished house requires

at least a small accessible area (attic or crawl space) above the
planned installation location.

Plan ducting and wiring before proceeding with installation (see

page 1).

CAUTION: Check area above planned location to be sure that:

(1) Ducting can be installed
(2) Wiring can be run to the planned location
(3) No wiring or other obstruction might interfere with installation

INSTALLATION

1. The fan light can be mounted directly to a ceiling joist or spaced

between joists using hanger bars (sold separately). If housing is to
be mounted directly to ceiling joist plan cutout so side of housing
with mounting tabs is against joist.

LOCATING JOIST: Lightly tap the ceiling. A hollow sound means

no joists, a solid sound means a joist is present. To be sure you
have located a joist, drill a small hole (1/16") and probe into the
ceiling with a wire. Leave wire in hole to help locate it in the attic or
crawl space.

2. Locate hole in attic or crawl space.
3. Using the housing as a template, mark the ceiling for the cutout.

Cutout dimensions: 9
