PREPARATION (Continued)
Check area above installation location to be sure that wiring can run to the planned location and that duct
work can be run and the area is sufcient for proper ventilation.
Inspect duct work and wiring before proceeding with installation.
Before installation, provide inspection and future maintenance access at a location that will not interfere
with installation work.
Installation may vary depending on how the previous bath fan was installed. Supplies necessary for
the installation of your bath fan are not all included; however, most are available at your local home
improvement or hardware store.

WIRING
All wiring must be connected for full functionality.
WARNING: Wiring must comply with all
applicable electrical codes. Turn off power
before removing or installing connectors.
WARNING: COPPER TO COPPER ONLY.
Do not use aluminum wire.
CAUTION: Accessory part (quick connector)
should meet installation instructions below.

NOTE: The connector is reusable on solid
wires of the same wire gauge or smaller. Do
not reuse the connector on stranded wires.
• Strip wires 3/8 in. - 1/2 in.
• Grip the wire rmly and push the stripped end of the
wire into the open port of the connector. Use only one
conductor per port.
• Verify the stripped end of the wires is fully inserted to
the back of the connector.
CAUTION: Wiring maximum temperature rating
221˚F (105˚C). 600V maximum for building wiring
and 1,000V maximum for signs and light xtures.
The acceptable wire range is 12-18 AWG Sol. Cu.
The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building
has a strong effect on the airow, noise and energy use
of the fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing
possible for best performance, and avoid installing the
fan with smaller ducts than recommended. Insulation
around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit
mold growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may
not achieve their rated airow.
