Curb Installations

Greenheck supplies gasketing material for all multi-
section curbs and/or plenums. Install gasketing prior
to bolting split curbs and or plenums together.
NOTE: Steel, concrete or wood support is per
structural engineer and in accordance with load
requirements and applicable building codes.

Structural Steel

Concrete Deck

Critical to every fan installation is a strong, level
foundation. A reinforced poured concrete pad with
a structural steel base or inertia base provides an
excellent foundation. Structural bases must be sturdy
enough, with welded construction, to prevent flexing
and vibration.
To eliminate vibration and noise from being transferred
to the building, vibration isolators should be used.
The fan is mounted directly on the isolation base and
must be supported for the entire length of the fan base
angle (Refer to the installation manual for structural
bases if the base was supplied by Greenheck).
Isolators are installed between the isolation base and
the foundation.
After the fan, isolation base and isolators are installed,
the entire assembly must be leveled. Position the level
on the isolation base, not the fan shaft, for proper
leveling. Additionally, the motor and fan shafts must
be level and parallel relative to each other for proper
alignment.
