Fan Installation
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
(a) Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions contact the
manufacturer.
(b) Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the power off at the service panel and lock the service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service
disconnecting means cannot be locked; securely fasten a prominent warning device such as a tag to
the service panel.
(c) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all
applicable codes & standards including related construction.
(d) When cutting or drilling into wall or roof, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
(e) CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive
Materials And Vapors.
(f) DO NOT USE with heated air in excess 140˚F (60˚C).
Select Fan Location
When selecting a location to install the SWF fan that has been chosen, take into consideration the applica-
tion of the product, the locations of fresh air intakes, and sound generated by the SWF unit.
The fan should be located a minimum of 6 feet horizontally and 8 feet vertically from any fresh air intakes
for HVAC systems, heat recovery systems, etc. to prevent exhaust air streams from being re-introduced
into the occupied space. Doors or windows that are frequently opened during pleasant seasons may also be
considered fresh air intakes so keep this in mind when selecting the location of the SWF.
Mark and Introduce Required Holes
Once the location on the exterior wall where the fan is to be mounted has been selected, mark all screw
and hole locations utilizing the included template. Cut the holes through the wall for the duct connection
and for the electrical conduit. Measure the thickness of the wall and the length of the duct connection that
is supplied on the SWF fan. Cut a length of duct so that once connected to the fan, will extend 2” through
the wall.
If mounting the fan on a masonry wall, drill four holes and insert wall anchors. If mounting to wooden
structure, you will utilize wood screws to secure the SWF to the wall.
If the fan is to be mounted on a wall surface which is not flush such as lapped siding, a mounting plate to
provide for a flush fit needs to be made.
Mount the Fan
Insert electrical supply through the wall. Attach the duct extension to the SWF making sure that the
connection is secure. Apply a generous amount of exterior silicone caulk to backplate of the fan to ensure
an airtight/waterproof connection between the fan and the wall surface. If a mounting frame is used in
conjunction with lapped siding, be certain to apply a generous amount of caulk between the frame and the
wall as well as the fan backplate and the frame. Mount the fan to the wall.
Note: Be certain to make an airtight seal around all interior wall penetrations before attaching
duct work.

Electrical Connection
All SWF series fans operate from a standard 120V 60Hz A.C electrical supply. All wiring must be carried out
in accordance with National Electrical Code, and all applicable state and local buildings codes.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Make sure that power supply is disconnected and locked to prevent accidental acti-
vation.
1. Remove the screws securing the terminal box cover plate located on the fan motor mounting bracket.
All fan motor and capacitor connections are pre-wired to the 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.
2. Bring incoming electrical service through the romex connector and the fan electrical service opening.
Using a small regular screwdriver, tighten the neutral (white) wire of the incoming 115V power supply un-
der the open terminal strip port opposing the motor Blue wire. Tighten the line (black) wire of the incom-
ing supply under the open terminal opposing the motor Black wire. Now, secure the source ground to the
open terminal strip opposing the Green/Yellow Wire.
3. Secure the romex connector. Secure the incoming supply with the romex connector. Replace the fan
terminal box cover.
4. Apply a generous bead of silicone caulk around the electrical provision hole in the backplate of the fan
to provide for a secure seal.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Since fan bearings are sealed and provided with an internal lubricating material, no additional lubrication is
necessary.
2. It is recommended that the cover is screen is checked on a regular basis to check for any obstructions
and the cover is removed and the motor and wheel are inspected and cleaned as necessary.
No other maintenance is necessary.
