5. Additional mounting holes are provided for installations

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK
FLUSH
NOTE: The duct connector
has a counter-balanced
damper flap. The flap will be
"open" approx. 1" when duct connector is attached to housing.
This design permits insulation to be in direct contact with fan/
light housing per UL (Underwriters Laboratories) standards.
The slightest backdraft, however, will close the damper flap,
preventing air from entering unit or finished space.
1. Snap the damper/duct connector onto housing. Make sure
that tabs on the connector lock into slots in housing. Top of
damper/duct connector should be flush with top of housing.
2. Connect 4” round duct to damper/duct connector and extend duct to outside through a roof or wall cap. Check
damper to make sure that it opens freely. Tape all duct
connections to make them secure and air tight.
A TT ACH THE GRILLE PAN AND
GLASS SHADE
1. Locate the grille pan
over the fan housing and
connect the wiring harness plug into white receptacle in the fan housing.
2. Insert rod through center hole of grille pan. Use
washer between collar
on rod and pan.
3. Thread rod onto grille
screw in housing, until
pan is tight against ceiling.
4. Install bulbs. Use 60
Watt (maximum), candelabra base bulbs.
5. Place glass shade over
mounting rod and align
shade onto grille pan.
Secure glass shade to
grille pan with “claw feet”
brackets as shown.
6. Restore electrical power
