4. Using a drywall saw or similar device, cut out the hole
in the ceiling.
5. Open and unpack your QuietCool fan.
TIP: If your attic is very tight, you may want to wire your QuietCool motor housing before
bringing it into the attic. Please follow the wiring diagrams that start on page 6.
6. Take the main assembly, which includes the motor
housing, damper box, and duct into the attic through
the crawl hole and move into position near the ceiling
cut-out hole.
TIP: If your attic access is far from your fan
location, you can remove the duct from the motor
housing and pass the motor housing, duct, and
damper box through the ceiling cut out hole and
reattach the duct to the motor housing in the
attic.
7. Hang the motor head from the rafters by fastening the metal strapping that is attached to the motor
heads to the rafters with the wood screws. Make sure that the handy box on the motor head is at
the very top. Secure duct to damper box using three black sharp screws. Make sure the housing is
angeled slightly up and the duct has a gentle 90 degree bend to help reduce noise level. The angle is
important as to not disturb any blown-in insulation in your attic.
NOTE: Once your QuietCool fan is hung, it’s time to go below and install the damper box and
ceiling grille.
NOTE: If you are installing the damper box with a vertical adapter, please follow the
instructions on page 5.
8. Look through the hole and make sure there are no kinks
or twists in the ducting. Pull the damper box down
through the hole in the ceiling.
9. Using the included drywall screws, fasten the damper
box to either the drywall or the joist in the attic.
