HiB Turbo Manual

Position the Fan on the Ceiling
1) Choose a suitable position for your fan
according to Figure 1 opposite. Use a
cable finder to check if there are any
buried cables or pipes in the ceiling.
Ceiling mounted ventilation should
be ducted through the roof space, by
ducting to an external soffit under the
eaves or grille in the slope of your roof.
NB: Ducting installed between a floor
and ceiling can only run between joists,
not across them.
2) Mark the position of the vent fascia with
a pencil in a suitable position on the
ceiling, making sure that it is between
the joists.
3) Drill a 9mm hole through the ceiling
anywhere along the edge of the pencil
line. Now cut out the hole with a pad
saw.
4) Hold the vent fascia against the ceiling
and mark the position of the fixing
holes. Fix the unit in place using suitable
heavy duty plasterboard fixings (not
supplied).
5) Attach flexible ducting with the metal
hose clamps. Ensure that the ducting
has a smooth flow towards the external
grille to minimise air resistance. Follow
a similar procedure for the outside
wall grille.
6) Install the Turbo Inline fan within the
loft or ceiling space. A mounting foot is
supplied to assist.
7) Connect the flexible ducting to both
sides of the Inline fan with the metal
hose clamps.

All installations must comply with guidelines which are based on a zonal concept.
The diagram above illustrates this concept and must be followed to ensure the safe
installation of bathroom ventilation. These regulations apply to domestic installations
only. Installations must be made in accordance with the current IEE wiring regulations
and relevant building regulations. HiB recommends that all electrical bathroom products
should only be fitted by a suitably qualified, Part P registered electrician.
This product is IPX4 Rated, and suitable for installation in Zone 2 and Outside Zones.
