Vento Safety
Safety Do not allow insulation material to rest
against the sides or top of the ventilation
unit when installed.
Read through these instructions fully before commencing installation.
Locate the IXL Ventflo in accordance with the requirements of the current Australian/New
Zealand Wiring Rules AS/NZS 3000 relating to damp situations, or according to applicable
Wiring Rules for installations outside of Australia and New Zealand. In some installations this
may mean that no part of the appliance may be located directly above any part of a bath or
shower recess or enclosure. For unenclosed showers refer to Wiring Rules conditions. This
unit is fitted with a cord and plug, however, any interconnecting wiring and switches used or
use of another cord and plug must be fitted by a licensed electrician.
Switches and other controls must not be located where they can be touched by a person in
the bath or shower.

Vento
All appliances must be mounted so that the lowest point is at least 2.1m above the floor. The IXL
Ducted Ventflo Ceiling Exhaust Vent is designed to fit a ceiling cavity with a minimum height of 210mm
(for models 10334/10336) and 242mm (for models 10337/10338) (A) (Figure 1) when installed in a
well ventilated roof cavity. Ensure the outlet of the Ventflo is directed towards the external wall. If the
desired orientation of the Ventflo directs the ducting across ceiling joist ensure that the closest ceiling
joist is not within 200mm of the Ventflo (B).
Fig. 1: Clearances
Use
1. Turn the switch on/off to make sure the unit runs.
2. Running the fan can exhaust steam and odours quickly and efficiently.
Note: Shut off power urgently when any abnormalities occur in operation. Then call a licensed
electrician or IXL service person for inspection and necessary service work.
3. Do not insert fingers or thin bars into the grille when the unit is operating.
This could cause harm to yourself and the appliance.
4. The unit must not be installed in a place that suffers from severe water leakage.
5. This unit included a 12W integrated LED light (only model 10336 and 10338).

Vento Installation
Important considerations before installing
• Joists, beams and rafters shall not be cut or notched to install the appliance.
• For the exhaust fan to work efficiently, replacement air of a volume equivalent to what is being
extracted must be able to enter the room. In general this air would be drawn from underneath a door
or through a slightly open window. If the room is airtight the fan will function poorly.
• This product is designed for installation in flat ceiling only. Do not mount it on a sloping ceiling or
vertical wall.
Installing the Unit
1. Locating the unit – Before commencing any cutting, check in the ceiling space that there are no
obstructions such as ceiling joists and that there is sufficient clearance for the housing. Check that
the electrical wiring can be routed from the wall switches to the mounting location.
2. Prepare the ceiling – Using the template provided, mark the ceiling with a pencil outline and cut out
the required hole. In order for the warranty to be honoured, the fan must be installed:
a. At least 2.1m above the ground.
b. At least 90cm from any hotplate.
c. At least 20cm distance from side walls.
d. Ensure the power supply cord does not interfere with the fan blades.
3. Cut the hole in the ceiling lining using an appropriate saw following the marked line.
4. Connect the fan into the wall socket. On the Ducted Ventflo Vent & Light models (product code 10336
and 10338), plug in the LED cable connector from the unit to the fascia.
a. Push the fan into the ceiling opening and secure the exhaust fan. Using a screwdriver (or a battery
driver with a low torque setting) partially tighten the screws securely. This will move the mounting clips
into the open position and hold the unit to the ceiling (Fig 2)
b. Ceiling thickness should be adjusted to enable the mounting clips to be fitted without excessive force.
c. Do not over tighten the screws as this can damage plasterboard.

Vento Installation
5. When installing the fascia, put the two retaining springs on the fascia (Fig 3) into the two slots in the
unit and make sure the fascia is well fixed to the unit.
6. Squeeze the springs from the fascia together and insert into the slots provided in the fan assembly.
7. To remove fascia, ensure the power of the unit is OFF. Pull the fascia down gently, un-attach the
retaining springs from the fascia to the unit and unplug the LED cable from the fascia
(for models 10336 and 10338). Pulling the fascia down with force will damage the fascia, the LED
cable (for models 10336 and 10338) and the unit.
8. Precautions must be taken to avoid the back-flow of gases into the room from an open flue gas
heater or other open fire appliances.

Vento Installation
Installing Ducting
1. Ducting is not included in this model.
2. Ducted Ventflo have been designed for use with 125mm diameter (for model 10334 and 10336)
and 150mm diameter (for model 10337 and 10338) flexible ducting. For optimum performance
keep the duct length straight and taut and as short as possible. It is recommended not to exceed a
duct length of 3 meters. Refer to Fig’s 4-6 to attain optimum performance.
3. Tape duct to round transition piece on unit. Note: On models 10337 and 10338 they have an
oval transition. The 150mm flexible duct will need to be shaped to fit over the transition.
4. Feed ducting through hole in ceiling. While feeding ducting into ceiling direct it towards the
installation position of the outlet grille.
5. Attach and secure ducting to outlet grille.

See the wiring diagram (Fig. 7 - 8) for supply requirements and maximum loadings for each model.
Fans may be connected to a lighting power circuit if loading permits. Wiring of the wall switch (not
provided) and socket outlet in roof cavity must be carried out by a registered electrician. The wall
switch should be located in accordance the Wiring Rules AS/NZS 3000. It must not be installed where
it can be reached by a person in the bath or shower.

Installation
Vento Ventilation Requirements
For maximum efficiency and fan performance there are a few key points to keep in mind when
installing your IXL Ventflo Ducted range.
Sufficient air inlet into room
Steam will only be removed if there is sufficient flow of air through the room. Ensure generous inlets
exist through windows, vents or under the door. Air flow path from inlet to fan should ideally pass over
the steam sources. (See Fig 9).
If you live in a traditionally cooler climate, in the winter months during hot showers, you may notice that
there is more moisture and condensation build up. If this is the case, you may wish to improve your
natural ventilation or invest in an additional exhaust fan.
Bathrooms which have high ceilings, are larger than average, or have an open shower may all require
additional ventilation.
Where ventilation space is restricted
This product is not recommended for installation between floors of multi-storey dwellings, or where
space within the roof cavity is severely restricted and a flue cannot be fitted. IXL has other Ventilation
products available that are particularly suited to installations between floors or where space is restricted.
For further details and suggestions on effectively ventilating your bathroom, please visit our website
www.ixlappliances.com.au or contact IXL Home customer service team.

Vento Cleaning
1. Shut power off before cleaning or maintenance.
2. To remove fascia for cleaning, ensure the power of the unit is OFF. Pull the fascia down gently, un-
attach the retaining springs from the fascia to the unit and unplug the LED cable from the fascia (for
models 10336 and 10338). Pulling the fascia down with force will damage the fascia, the LED cable
(for models 10336 and 10338) and the unit.
3. The fascia can be cleaned either by a damp cloth or by simply removing the dust with a soft
bristle brush.
