6. POWER UNIT INSTALLATION
6.1 LOCATING THE POWER UNIT
• Locate the power unit away from the general living area in an accessible
location for cleaning and maintenance.
• Locate the power unit within 6 feet of a grounded electrical outlet. The power
unit requires a 120 VAC power source.
• Do not locate the power unit close to a source of extreme heat (i.e.: water
heater) or in an area with a high ambient temperature (i.e.: attic, furnace room).
• Do not locate the power unit where the temperature can drop below 0°C (32°F).
• If the power unit is located in a closet or a small utility room, make sure the area
is well-ventilated (i.e.: with door louvers).
NOTE: Refer to NuTone website for information on tubing installation
(www.nutone.com).
6.2 MOUNTING POWER UNIT
1. Carefully remove debris pail from power
unit. Make sure bag is properly installed in
power unit. Remove accessories and
installation kit. Securely reinstall pail.
2. Install the 3-way elbow on the back of the
power unit and press firmly (do not glue).
Remove the plastic cap from the inlet
opening only if your installation requires the
connection into both inlets.
3. Install mounting bracket on a wall stud within
6 feet of a grounded electrical outlet, at the
distances specified on illustration beside.
Ensure that wall between mounting bracket
and inlet is straight and leveled.
