TYPE 1 INSTALLATION

TFP Directly Connected to

Forced Air Heating System

1. Install 7” port collar (provided) on top and
bottom of TFP (Fig. 1). Use (4) 8/32” X 3/8”
screws (provided).

2. Remove protective backing from pieces of
foam and stick them to the 4 corners of the TFP
on the side being mounted against the plenum.

3. Remove the 4 mounting bolts from the back of the
TFP cabinet. (Fig. 1)

4. Attach top and bottom mounting brackets
(provided) vertical to the TFP cabinet and
reinstall mounting bolts.

5. Lift the TFP into position. Edge of TFP must be

positioned on plenum to allow clearance
needed for latches.

6. Install the (4) 8/32” X 3/4” mounting screws
(provided) through the brackets and into position.
Tighten and secure.

7. TFP should now sit securely against the plenum
with the foam in between.

NOTE: Do not support the weight of the TFP on
the duct. Duct must be open and not pinched.

NOTE: Due to possible noise transfer through
the duct system, it may be preferable in some
situations to hang the TFP a short distance from
the plenum, and connect by running flexible
ducting between them. Four nylon hanging straps
are provided for this option.
