• Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes
and standards, including fire-rated construction.
• 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

electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
• Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
WARNING!: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal
ductwork.
CAUTION!: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust
air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceilings, or into attics, crawl spaces,
or garages.
