Fan Installation
When selecting fan (1) mounting location, the
following criteria should be considered: a)
mounting to minimize noise generated by fan
operation; b) service accessibility.
Mounting to minimize noise generated by fan
operation: Mounting the fan (1) as far as
possible from the intake point will minimize fan
operating noise from being transmitted back
through the duct work. Insulated flexible type
duct work (recommended for all bathroom
exhaust applications) will result in much quieter
operation. It is recommended that a minimum
8’ of insulated flexible ducting be used between
any expansion vent and fan (1) for low noise
level.
Service accessibility: Fan (1) location should
allow sufficient access for service.

Installation Considerations
Installation
Warning: For your safety, read and understand
instructions completely before starting. Before
wiring to power supply, turn off electricity at the
fuse or circuit breaker box. Make sure electrical
service to fan is locked in “OFF” position.
Note: Prior to installation, consider the placement
of the 100 CFM Fan carefully, taking into account
the location of electrical, plumbing, and other
fixtures.
Note: All units are suitable for use with solid-state
speed controls
Note: This unit has rotating parts and safety
precautions should be exercised during
installation, operation and maintenance.
Caution: For general ventilation use only. Do not
use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials
and vapors.
Note: All wiring must be done in accordance with
National Electrical Code and local building code.
Note: The combustion air-flow needed for safe
operation of fuel burning equipment may be
affected by this unit’s operation. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and
safety standards such as those published by the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the
American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and
Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
Note: Exhaust fans must always be vented to the
outdoors.
Note: Acceptable for use over a bathtub or
shower.
Warning: NEVER place a switch where it can be
reached from a tub or shower.
Warning: For installation over a tub or shower,
power source must be externally switched GFCI
circuit and must be installed in accordance with
local and building codes.

Warning: Check voltage at the fan to see if it
corresponds to the motor nameplate.
Warning: Guards must be installed when fan is
within reach of personnel or within seven (7) feet
of working level or when deemed advisable for
safety.
For safety purposes, use safety goggles
at all times.
Check for piping/electrical before
cutting or drilling.
If there is any risk of uninsulated
electrical connections in your wall/ceiling area, use
insulating gloves.
Before wiring to power supply, turn off
electricity at the fuse or circuit breaker box.
Important: It is recommended that all electrical
equipment be tested prior to installation.

Fan Installation
Atmospheric 310
Remove the screws securing the terminal box
cover plate located on the side of the fan (1)
(see figure 3). All fan motor connections are
pre-wired to an electrical terminal strip. A 3/8”
romex type cable restraint connector will be
needed to secure the wiring through the
knockout provided on the side of the terminal
box.
Bring incoming electrical service through the
romex connector and the fan knockout. Be
sure to place the connector nut over the wiring
coming into the terminal box. There are two
open ports on the terminal strip. Using a small
regular screwdriver, tighten the neutral (white)
wire of the incoming supply under the open
terminal strip port labeled “N”. Tighten the line
(black) wire of the incoming supply under the
open terminal strip port labeled “L”. Since the
fan motor is isolated within a plastic housing,
grounding is not necessary (see figure 4).
4.
5.
Secure the romex connector. Secure the
incoming supply with the romex connector.
Replace the fan terminal box cover. All fan
motor and capacitor connections have been
pre-wired from the factory. No additional fan
wiring is necessary.
6.
Using the 1” wood screws (4) provided, attach
the fan mounting bracket (2) to a support beam
at the selected location (see figure 1 on page
6). Note: Fan (1) mounting can be at any
point along the duct and in any angle;
however, vertical mounting is recommended to
reduce condensation buildup in the fan (1). If a
horizontal installation is necessary and
condensation buildup may pose a problem,
wrap insulation around the fan (1).
Attach fan (1) to the mounting bracket (2) with
the three 7/16" sheet metal screws (5)
provided, making sure the wiring box is
positioned for easy access (see figure 2 on
page 6). Note: Bracket (2) is provided with
rubber vibration isolation grommets (3) to
prevent the transmission of sound through the
structure. Be careful not to overtighten. Also,
care should be taken not to strip the plastic
housing. Screws (5) are selftapping and do not
require pilot holes. However, pilot holes no
larger than 3/32" are recommended.
