5. For the exhaust fan to work efficiently, replacement air of a volume equivalent to what b being extracted must be able to enter the room. Generally, this air would be drawn under the door, or through a slightly open window. If the room s airtight, the fan will function poorly.
6. Before commencing any cutting, check ñ the ceiling space that there are no obstructions such as ceiling joists and that there e sufficient height clearance for the housing. Check that the electrical wiring can be routed from the wall switches to the mounting location.

INSTALLATION

2. Ducting Put one ern of the 1COmrn diameter ventiduct into the vent hole and seal space around the hole using a suitable sealant an cowling where necessary.
   
   Note. Since the length of each duct b 1.5m, make sure that from the centre of installation position there should be a distance within 1.5m b the outside vent.

3. Locating the heater For the purpose of obtaining best heating effect, from the lamps there should be about a 23m overall height to ground.

4. Prepare the ceiling Cut around the attached hole-cutting template and use this template to mark the hole outline on the ceiling. Make sure a distance between the edges and wall is no less than 250mm. Also from the rooftop there should be a minimum 200mm height b the ceilin
