REMOTE BLOWER INSTALLATION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK,
POWER SHOULD BE TURNED OFF TO UNIT
BEFORE ATTEMPTING THE FOLLOWING
PROCEDURE.
REMOTE BLOWER INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before turning the power on, make sure the
blower is in the “OFF” position. Use wire connectors or
wire nuts approved by UL or C/UL..
NOTE: Detailed instructions of Remote Blower
installation are provided with the blower. Refer to
installation instructions provided with each blower to
verify wall or roof cut-outs. The following information is
simply intended to summarize the process.
Locate the blower so the length of the duct run 1.
and number of elbows and transitions are kept to a
minimum.
Where possible, blower should be located between 2.
wall studs or roof rafters.
Avoid pipes, wires or other ductwork that may be 3.
running through the wall.
Be sure that there is enough space for any 4.
transitions that may be needed between the blower
and the connecting ductwork.
For best performance, locate transitions nearest 5.
the blower.
CONNECT REMOTE BLOWER
NOTE: Always refer to all blower installation
instructions provided with the blower for additional
mounting and wiring instructions.
Remove the cover from the front of the electrical 1.
box. Remove the electrical box knockout that
faces the hood’s discharge collar.
Disconnect the red, black or white wires using a 2.
fl at-blade screwdriver. (See Figure 2-39)
Insert 6” (152) of the remote blower wiring through 3.
the knockout opening. Secure the cable to the
electrical box with an appropriate connector. Use
wire connectors or wire nuts approved by UL or C/
UL.
Attach the remote blower wiring where the wires 4.
were removed in step 2. (See Figure 2-40)
Re-install wiring box cover and screws. Make sure 5.
all wires are secure and that no wires are pinched
between cover and box.
NOTE: Before turning the power on to the ventilation
hood, make sure the blower is in the OFF position.
