TO INSTALL IN EXISTING HOMES
1. Determine location of ventilator. Check wall for studs and obstructions.
2. Work on inside wall first. Draw a circle 11-1/8” in diameter at determined location. Be sure opening is
at least 1” from the studs. (See Figure 2.)
3. Carefully saw opening in plaster. Remove just enough insulation to allow sleeve to pass through,
exposing sheathing. Mark the center of the hole on the sheathing. At this point, drill small hole to outside.
4. Now work from outside. Using hole as a center point, draw a circle on outside wall, 11-1/8” in
diameter. Saw opening. In case of brick or stone, use hammer and chisel to make opening.
5. Install door and outside sleeve assembly from outside. Caulk and level before nailing tight. Remove
tape, permitting damper door to open. (See Figure 3.)
6. Working inside the house, slide inside sleeve temporarily in place. Wall thickness will determine
whether to remove one, or both knockouts from outside sleeve, permitting outlet box to drop through.
Remove knockouts from outside sleeve. (See Figure 4.)
7. Slide inside sleeve into place again, and pull power cable through outlet box opening. This will
determine length of power cable to ventilator. Attach cable to outlet box, using an approved connector.
Splice cable to switch and receptacle leads in outlet box cover. Ground wire may be attached to
grounding bolt in outlet box.
8. Adjust inside sleeve, so that flange will be flush with finished wall. Using metal screws, fasten inside
housing to outside housing. Screws are supplied with the ventilator.
9. Push outlet box cover into place, and fasten with screws.
10. Remove chain from envelope and attach eye of chain to hook on end of chain spring on inside of door.
Feed chain through guides and over switch lever.
11. Install motor blade assembly. Keyhole slot in motor bracket should be kept on top of the ventilator. Insert
bottom of motor bracket into holes in outlet box cover. Engage keyhole slot over screw in top of
ventilator and tighten, making sure that blade is centered in sleeve.
12. Push switch lever down to prevent motor from starting, and insert plug into receptacle. Be sure fan
blade does not strike cord. When you release the switch lever, the motor will start.
13. Feed chain through hole in motor bracket and slot in grille, and attach grille to ventilator with knob.
Obtain pendant from envelope and slide it on chain. Attach small sleeve or coupling to end of chain
and pull pendant against it.
14. To shut off ventilator, pull chain taut and swing it to the left to secure it in hook.
