2. Decals

The manufacturer does not warrant any roof damage caused by excess ive v acuum or internal pressure from fans or other air moving systems. Adequate ventilation and/or “makeup air” devices should be provided for all powered air handling systems. The manufacturer does not recommend the use of downward flow systems (suction). Severe roof damage can result from any blockage of air passages. Running fans durin g high humidity/cold weather conditions can cause air exhaust or intake ports to freeze.
Roof Damage Warning and Disclaimer
CAUTION!
Excessive vacuum (or pressure) may damage roof. Use positive aeration system. Make sure all roof vents are open and unobstructed. Start roof fans when supply fans are started. Do not operate when conditions exist that may cause roof vent icing.

Drill 3/8" hole in beam flange and attach with 5/16" hardware.
NOTE: Roof panels and roof exhauster not shown for clarity. See side view on Page 27 for CRP-6447 and roof exhauster placement.
NOTE: See roof exhauster manual (PNEG-524) for detailed assembly instructions, shown here are 135' roof exhauster placement recommendations.
Figure 4A below and Figure 4B on Page 27 shown is the recommended roof exhauster placement on the
90'-10K and 20K-50 PSF ground snow roof. Two (2) Z-shape reinforcement pieces (CRP-6447) are sent with the 90' roof for each exhauster. The reinforcement piece should be placed a minimum of 12" above the intermediate “Z” collar (CRP-4821) as shown in Figure 4B on Page 27 for side view detail. The second from the top hole of the roof exhauster support angle should be line up with the top Z-reinforcement. The Z-reinforcement should be bolted to the roof beam and bolted to the exhauster support angles. Two (2) holes will need to be drilled through the roof beams and Z-reinforcement to attach with 5/16" hardware. A 3/8" diameter hole should be drilled through th e roof panel and into the top Z-reinforcement on each side of the exhauster housing. The exhauster should be fastened with 5/16" hardware. Next the lower Z-reinforcement should be placed under the lowest hole on the roof exhauster support angle. The Z-reinforcement should be bolted to the roof beam and bolted to the exhauster suppor t angles as specified above. A 3/8" diameter hole should be drilled through the roof panel and into the bottom Z-reinforcement on each side of the exhauster housing. The exhauster should be fastened with 5/16" hardware. NOTE: Caulking will be needed at any locations of drilling or cutting of the roof panels.
Also included is tubing for bracing the roof exhauster housing to the roof panels. Bracing angle and location is determined by the installer. Care needs to be taken not to interfere with any other equipment on the roof.
