INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
This window fan has been designed to fit double-hung or vertical
slider/windows with minimum openings of 19” wide and 14” high. As
noted above, it is also designed and recommended for use with your
window screen in place.
FOR DOUBLE-HUNG AND SLIDER WINDOWS:
NOTE: On SLIDER WINDOWS the bottom section must be the side you
add extenders to (left side). The controls should face toward the window.
STEP 1. With the window open, take an accurate measurement of the
opening where the unit will be placed.
STEP 2. Match your window measurement with the installation guide on
page 2; adding the appropriate extender panel(s) (3.5” each)
to the left side, while using the built-in extender on the right
side (up to 7”).
STEP 3. Once you have added extender panels (if necessary), set the
fan in the window and complete the installation process with the
built-in extender. Pull out both clips on the right side (top to
bottom) of the fan, then adjust the built-in extender to fill the
remaining space. After obtaining a snug, safe fit, lock the
extender in place, by pushing the clips down.
STEP 4. Carefully close the window onto the top of the fan so that the
bottom edge of
the window rests
behind the top
line of the fan
housing. This
helps hold the
fan in place.
