Avoid Back drafts
Care should be taken to avoid back drafting combustion appliances that are installed in the garage space. It is
strongly recommended that combustion appliances NOT be installed in such a manner that they use room air for
combustion. QuietCool Garage Fans are capable of pulling large quantities of air from the garage and particularly
if not enough venting is available or blocked. This could easily back draft gas appliances located inside your garage.
Determine in which area you would like to install your QuietCool Fan. Now it’s time to nd the exact location using
1.
a stud nder. Locate the wall studs or ceiling joist and mark the location for the fan to be installed.
2.
When you nd the location, mark the area 14 1/4” square.
Starting at one corner of the square using a drywall saw make a cut following the direction or the wall stud or
3.
ceiling joist.
Remove the cutout drywall and clear away insulation (if any).
4.

From the interior, drill a hole at each of the four corners of the cut out square through the exterior.
5.
Go to the exterior and place the square wall mounting bracket aligned to the 4 holes drilled. Using a level mark the

inside of the bracket.
Using a saw or angle grinder with the appropriate blade, cut out marked area of stucco or siding.
