into the fan. With some combinations of fan and

shutter, a portion of the opening may be blocked

by the platform. This will not effect the efficiency of

the fan. Fasten the platform to the joists and new

framing. (See fig. 2).

STEP 7. Center the plenum on the platform and

toe nail it in place. NOTE: WHEN TOE NAILING

PLENUM TO PLATFORM MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE

SIDES OF THE PLENUM REMAIN STRAIGHT AND

SQUARE OR THE FAN WILL NOT FIT PROPERLY.

STEP 8. To prevent Attic Air from entering the

plenum, tape all of the joints of the new framing,

platform and plenum with duct tape or aluminum

foil tape.

STEP 9. Place the fan on the plenum making sure

that the rubber isolation mount is in place between

the fan and plenum. DO NOT REPLACE SCREWS.

This is to permit the fan to “float” on the rubber

mount which helps reduce noise. (See fig. 4).

STEP 10. Install the flush mounted ceiling shutter

into the ceiling opening using the screws provided.

Caution should be taken not to effect the free

operating action of the shutter. (See figs. 3 & 4).
