INSTALLATION
NEW HOME CONSTRUCTION
Refer to Figure 5
1. Cut out wall plate (9) between two studs at the location of VacPan™. Cut a 6 3/4" piece of wall plate and refasten to floor
temporary rough-in block. (10) This will act as temporary rough-in block that will force all trades to finish around providing
a slot in wall for installation of VacPan™. Make certain that screws (11) remain exposed so that block can be removed in
the future.
2. Flooring contractor must run flooring under block.
3. Rough-in pipe and low voltage leads (12) to location of VacPan™ outlet. Ensure final fitting is installed 1" off finished
floor with 1/2" of play in piping to allow VacPan™ to be slid into position.
