PLANNING DUCTWORK AND WIRING

DUCTWORK

1. Use 4" round duct.

2. Plan to run duct from the fan's discharge opening to the outside. For
best fan performance, make duct run as short as possible and use
minimum number of elbows.

3. Use optional NuTone ducting accessories as needed (refer to NuTone's
catalog for a complete listing of optional accessories).

WIRING

Plan to run 120vAC house wiring (with ground) from a power source,

through a standard wall switch or an optional NuTone double FAN/LIGHT
switch, to the junction box in the Fan-Light's housing.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:

A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified

person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,
including fire-rated construction.

B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases

through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back
drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and
safety standards such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating,
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local
code authorities.

C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical

wiring and other hidden utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
E. If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it must be marked as

appropriate for the application.
F. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use

•

this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock, disconnect power before

•

servicing.

Not for use in kitchens.

•

Do not install in a ceiling insulated to a value greater than R-40.

•

For installation in sloped ceilings up to 7/12 pitch, ductwork must point up.

•

FOR BEST RESULTS

For new construction install the housing during the rough-in stage of
construction. The blower unit, light and grille should be installed after the
finished ceiling is in place.

To install the Exhaust Fan-Light in an existing finished building requires

an accessible area (attic or crawl space) above the planned location.

INSTALLATION IN A NEW
CONSTRUCTION SITE

PREPARATION

1. Unplug the power unit.

2. Refer to Figure 1. Remove power unit/blower assembly from the

housing. Remove screw and pull power unit assembly tabs out of slots
in housing. Set unit aside until needed.

3. Remove one of the wiring knockouts from housing.

MOUNTING THE HOUSING

USING SIDE MOUNTING TABS

Refer to Figure 2.

1. Locate housing next to ceiling joist.

2. Use wood screws (not provided) to loosely attach housing to ceiling
joist through keyhole slots in mounting tabs.

3. Adjust housing so that it will be flush with the finished ceiling.

4. When housing is properly adjusted, tighten screws in slots.

USING HANGER BARS

(Hanger bars sold separately, order model HB4)
Refer to Figure 3.

1. Insert hanger bars in slots provided in housing.

2. Locate fan housing between ceiling joists so that bottom of fan housing
is even with the planned finished ceiling.

3. Use screws or nails to secure mounting brackets to ceiling joists.

INSTALLING DUCTWORK

1. Refer to Figure 1. Place duct collar over flanges at discharge opening
of fan. Secure collar by snapping tabs into slots in flanges.

2. Refer to Figure 4. Run 4" round duct from outside to fan's discharge
opening.

3. Connect duct to duct collar.

WIRING

Refer to Figures 5 and 6.

All wiring must comply with local codes and unit must be properly

grounded.

1. Run 120vAC house wiring from power source, through wall switch, to
junction box in housing.

2. To control both fan and light with one switch, install wiring.

3. For separate control of the fan and light, use NuTone double switch and
install wiring.

4. Install approved box connector into wiring access hole. String wires
through box connector and into junction box.

5. Use approved wire nuts to make wire connections. Green or bare supply
ground lead must be connected to green lead in wiring compartment.

POWER/BLOWER UNIT INSTALLATION

Refer to Figure 1.

1. Place power/blower unit into housing so that mounting plate's tabs insert
into slots in housing.

2. Secure mounting plate with provided screw.

3. Insert motor plug into junction box receptacle.

COMPLETING INSTALLATION

Refer to Figure 1.

1. Remove acorn nut from the threaded stud on motor mounting plate.

2. Place reflector into grille.

receptacle in junction box.

4. Using acorn nut, secure grille/reflector assembly to motor mounting
strap.

5. Install 100 watt (maximum) light bulb into light socket.

6. Install lens by squeezing both sides and inserting lens tabs into slots in
grille.

INSTALLATION IN EXISTING
CONSTRUCTION

PLANNING

Installing a bathroom exhaust fan-light in a finished house requires
at least a small accessible area (attic or crawl space) above the
planned installation location.

Plan ducting and wiring before proceeding with installation (see
page 1).

CAUTION: Check area above planned location to be sure that:

(1) Ducting can be installed

(2) Wiring can be run to the planned location

(3) No wiring or other obstruction might interfere with installation

INSTALLATION

1. The fan light can be mounted directly to a ceiling joist or spaced

between joists using hanger bars (sold separately). If housing is to

be mounted directly to ceiling joist plan cutout so side of housing

with mounting tabs is against joist.

LOCATING JOIST:Lightly tap the ceiling. A hollow sound means

no joists, a solid sound means a joist is present. To be sure you

have located a joist, drill a small hole (1/16") and probe into the

ceiling with a wire. Leave wire in hole to help locate it in the attic or

crawl space.

2. Locate hole in attic or crawl space.

3. Using the housing as a template, mark the ceiling for the cutout.

Cutout dimensions: 91/8" x 91/8".

4. Make cutout along marked line.

5. Refer to Mounting The Housing on page 2.
