Warning – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons, observe the following:
- This unit is only for use in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions contact the manufacturer Festa Manufacturing Enterprises LLC.
- Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person’(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
- Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue, (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
- When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
- Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
- These units can be mounted indoors or outdoors.
- Do not use these fans with solid state speed controllers.
- The electric motor is protected by an internal overheat device to prevent/minimize motor damage. If the motor stops working, immediate inspection should be carried out by suitably qualified persons.
- Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at 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.
- Do not use in a window.
- If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it must be marked as appropriate for the application and be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) – protected branch circuit.
- Never place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
- CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not use to Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive Materials and Vapours.
- CAUTION: This unit has an unguarded impeller. Do Not Use in Locations Readily Accessible To People or Animals.
- For Canadian Users: Use only with solid state speed control device model KBMC-13BV manufactured by KBElectonics, except with Extreme fan models.
Installation of FME AMG PATRIOT Radon Fans
The FME AMG PATRIOT Fan can be mounted indoors or outdoors. We suggest that
EPA recommendations be used in choosing the fan location. The AMG Fans may be
mounted directly onto the piping system or fastened to a supporting structure.
When mounting directly onto a vertical piping system, it is the installer’s
responsibility to make provision to prevent the pipe system sliding into and
onto the fan motor and impeller. When installing a system with short duct runs
terminating close to the fan i.e. within 60” (1.5m) suitable guards should be
incorporated. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all
aspects of the system are taken into consideration. Rigid ducting sections
should be connected to fan spigots by flexible connectors and clips. The
flexible connectors used should be suitable for routine servicing and
vibration isolation.
Fan Configuration-All inline fans can be mounted (1) vertically with terminal box/cover facing up, or (2) horizontally with terminal box drain hole facing down toward the ground.
Electrical Connections
Ensure that the mains supply voltage, frequency, number of phases and power rating comply with the details on the unit rating label (situated internally on inside of box cover). All wiring must be in accordance with local and / or national electrical codes as applicable, or the appropriate standard in your country. The fan must be supplied through a double pole isolating switch having a contact separation of not less than 1/8” (3mm). Wiring to the terminal box should be made in liquid tight flexible conduit to facilitate easy maintenance.
Operational Checks
Ensure all duct connections are tight and leak free.
Check the system vacuum pressure with a manometer; ensure that the vacuum
pressure is less than the maximum recommended operating pressure.
Check and verify Radon levels by testing to EPA protocol.
Cleaning and Maintenance
We would recommend that the fan be periodically checked against the listed operational checks to ensure trouble free long lasting operation.
