enough to accommodate the new fan housing  
(A) (7-1/2 in. x 7-1/4 in.).

to cut a 7-1/2 in. x 7-1/4 in. opening for the  
fan housing (A).

wall stud. The fan housing should be level and 
perpendicular to the joist or stud. Allow for thick-

DO NOT ush mount to joist. Bottom of the fan 
housing should be ush with ceiling board.

remove the plastic duct connector for easier 
access to the mounting hole on the fan housing.
Remove the duct connector by inserting a at 
head screw driver between the plastic and metal 
of the fan housing, then GENTLY pry the duct 
connector off.
