2. INSTALLATION

2.1 INSTALLING AFR

1. Determine in which area you would like to install your

QuietCool AFR.

2. From inside the attic, nd the center point between the two

roof rafters and mark it as the center of the fan hole. Partially

insert a screw into the center point mark.

NOTE: If you have a tile roof, you will need to move the

tiles out of the way before tracing and cutting. (See Figure

2.1A)

3. Go to the roof. Using the screw as a reference point and the

provided template, trace out the 16” diameter circle.

4. Use a reciprocating saw to cut out the traced hole pattern

from the roof decking. Remove the cut out decking material

from around the hole as needed. (See Figure 2.1B)

5. If you have a shingle roof, insert the reciprocating saw

sideways between the shingles and roof decking. Starting

at the 3 o’clock position of the fan hole, begin cutting in a

sweeping motion under the shingles, cutting through any

roong nails or staples. Continue cutting counterclockwise

around the fan hole until reaching the 9 o’clock position. Using

a roong knife, cut a 4 inch horizontal slit in the shingles at the

9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions of the hole, allowing the fan’s

ashing to slide underneath the shingles.

6. Apply weatherproof material to the roof. (See Figure 2.1C)

7. Position the fan so that it is centered with the fan hole and

allow the power cord to hang freely from the bottom of the

fan unit. The power cord comes in 20 ft length.

(See Figure 2.1D)

NOTE: Power cord CANNOT be used outdoors.

8. Lifting the fan unit up at an angle, apply weatherproof caulking

to the bottom side of the fan unit. This will help keep the fan in

place and will seal nice and tight.

NOTE: Wiring Diagrams are for examples ONLY. Wiring should be done by an

experienced electrician.

NOTE: Your fan came with the Smart Control Hub pre-wired to a power cord for testing purposes

before installation. If you would like to hard-wire the fan, or it is required by your local building

codes, please follow the wiring instructions below.
