5. Installation
This exhaust fan is designed for ceiling-mounted ventilation and features a cut-free design for easier installation. No attic access is required for the main installation. Always ensure power is disconnected before beginning.
Installation Steps:
- Prepare Opening: Create a ceiling opening of approximately 7.68 x 7.6 inches (195 x 193 mm). Ensure there is sufficient space above the ceiling for the fan housing.
- Secure Fan Housing: Secure the exhaust fan housing to a ceiling joist or wall pillar using appropriate mounting hardware. Ensure it is firmly attached to prevent vibration.
- Connect Wiring: Connect the electrical wiring. Match the corresponding wire colors (e.g., connect the fan's white wire to the house's white wire, black to black, and green/bare to ground). Use approved wire connectors and ensure all connections are secure and insulated.
- Install Ducting: Attach a 4-inch exhaust duct to the fan's outlet. Secure the duct with tape or clamps to ensure an airtight seal. (Exhaust duct is not included).
- Attach Panel and Light: Connect the lighting wire from the fan housing to the light panel. Carefully snap the decorative panel onto the fan housing, ensuring it is flush with the ceiling.
- Restore Power: Once installation is complete and all connections are secure, restore power at the circuit breaker.

Smart Mode (Humidity-Based Auto Airflow):
Upon startup, the fan may operate in a smart mode that adjusts airflow based on humidity levels. If humidity is above 70%, the fan will operate at its maximum 110 CFM. If humidity is below 70%, it will operate at a minimum of 80 CFM. This feature helps maintain optimal humidity levels automatically.
