PLAN THE INSTALLATION
The unit will operate
most quietly and
efficiently when
located where the
shortest possible
duct run and
minimum number
of elbows will be
needed.
Use a roof cap or
wall cap that has a
built-in damper to
reduce backdrafts.
Plan to supply the
unit with proper
line voltage and
appropriate power
cable.
