Surface Mount Installation

The diffuser is fully assembled from the factory.
NOTE: These instructions are for surface mounting to a sealed ceiling. Some installations require custom mounting and/or custom diffusers. In those cases be sure to seal the unit to the ceiling and seal all penetrations through the plenum walls.
1. Carefully remove the unit from the shipping carton and inspect for damage that may have occurred during shipping. If shipping damage is found, do not install. Call the rep, salesperson, or manufacturer to report damage.
2. Wipe down unit to remove shipping dust and debris.
3. Prepare the ceiling: Cut a rectangular hole in the desired location 1.48 in. smaller than the nominal size of the diffuser. Frame the hole with 2×4 wood or equivalent steel studs. Always measure the units to verify dimensions before making cuts.
4. Using a flat screwdriver, release the face frame by rotating the quarter-turn fasteners counterclockwise. Unhook the safety cables from the unit. Set the frame aside.
