VENTFLO DUCTED INLINE BLOWER

Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT: This product must ONLY be installed by a suitably qualified and registered tradesperson. 611770 J
The IXL Ventflo Ducted Inline Blower has been designed to exacting standards to give you many years of trouble free operation. To ensure you get the most from your Ventflo there are a few simple points to keep in mind.

VENTILATION

To ensure optimum performance of the exhaust fan, it is essential that there is adequate air flow into the room to help the Ventflo’s powerful and efficient ducted fan to quickly remove steam and fumes. Ensure adequate inlets exist through windows, vents or under the door. Air flow path from inlet to fan should ideally pass over the steam or cooking fume source. If the inline exhaust is used in a room where there is any fuel burning appliances, such as a stove or fireplace, please ensure there is adequate ventilation to ensure the entry of clean air into the room and prevent the backflow of exhaust gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of an exhaust fan the operation of flued gas appliances should be tested by an authorised person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur.

CLEARANCE

The Ventflo Inline exhaust is designed to fit a ceiling cavity or between floor space with a minimum height of 230mm.

INSTALLATION

A switched power outlet/supply is required for the Ventflo Inline Exhaust (Aust and NZ).This switched power supply must be in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 (Wiring Rules) or equivalent for your particular area.
Locate where the inlet and outlet grilles are to be located. Ensure that there is a clear path for the 150mm diameter flexible ducting to the grille positions.
Cut 160mm holes for the inlet and outlet grilles.
Fit the inlet grille base into the ceiling. · Fit backdraft flaps to Ventflo blower, ENSURE FLAPS ARE MOUNTED AT BLOWER OUTLET.
Locate the blower unit at the highest position in the ducting system. The blower unit may be fixed by means of suitable fasteners such as screws to a support straddling two ceiling joists suitably supported by vibration isolating material such as soft rubber matting or an insulation batt, or by suspending it from the roof rafters with straps. See figures 1, 2.
Ensure that the Ventflo blower is orientated in the correct direction. Refer to arrow on side of unit.
Measure the length of ducting between the grilles to the blower unit and cut the ducting to length.
WHEN INSTALLED THE DUCTING SHOULD BE STRETCHED STRAIGHT. Do not use longer ducting than necessary as excess length will reduce the airflow delivery. Ensure ducting at outlet of blower does not interfere with backdraft flaps.
Tape the ducting to the inlet and outlet grilles. If the outlet grille is located in the eaves it may be necessary to pass the ducting out through the hole, tape it to the grille base and then fit the grille base in the hole.
Fit grille louvres to the grille bases.
This appliance must be mounted with the lowest point at least 2.1m from the floor.
TO ENABLE SERVICE, ACCESS TO THE INLINE BLOWER MUST BE PROVIDED.
