2. Your Safety This guide is for the installation of the motor used in the Isodrive systems after the canopy/rangehood or bathroom extraction grill has been mounted on the wall or ceiling. (Refer to canopy/rangehood or bathroom extraction unit installation manual). NOTE: All PVC pipe and flexi ducting measurements are referring to inside measurements, unless otherwise mentioned.
2. Your Safety Minimum Mounting Height This fan unit is intended for mounting at a minimum height of 2.1 metres (measured to the lower part of the fan impeller) above a floor or the ground. Avoidance of Back Flow Care should be taken to avoid the back flow of gases into the room from the open flue of gas or other open fire appliances. Safety of Children This fan is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

IMPORANT For more flexible ducting instructions, refer page 19.
4. Installation Roof Installation (Recommended duct length: 3 metre) Mount the 100mm rigid PVC pipe securely to the beams, trusses or other appropriate structures, refer figure 1. The pipe should be mounted either vertical or perpendicular to the roof cladding with the roof penetration being sealed using a Dektite or other sealing device.
4. Installation Roof Installation Locking Screw Fan Module Roof Clading Mounting Flange Dektite Slot option Roof Frame Optional bend 100mm PVC Pipe Secure pipe to structure Slot pipe for power cord exit. Cover with ducting tape if required 150mm flexible ducting 5 metre max Bell-mouth adaptor Connect to rangehood Power cord NOTE: Ensure that power cord is feed through exit slot and is not allowed to double back restricting fan inlet.
4. Installation Eaves Installation After ensuring sufficient clearance exists for the mounting flange and ducting, refer figure 1, cut a circular hole 165mm Ø, maintaining adequate clearances. The eaves sheeting should be reinforced. Pre-drill mounting flange recess. Refer figure 3. If access to the eaves space is restricted, before fixing mounting flange to eaves, preassemble mounting flange, PVC pipe, bell-mouth adaptor and flexi-duct then feed up into roof space.
4. Installation Wall Installation The installation should be similar to eaves mounting if access to the inside is limited, but if unrestricted. Refer to EAVES INSTALLATION and figure 4. Min 90mm long PVC pipe Min 20mm Bell-mouth Adaptor Flexible 150mm ducting NOTE: Ensure that power cord is feed through exit slot and is not allowed to double back restricting fan inlet. Figure 4 IMPORANT For more flexible ducting instructions, refer page 19.
5. Back Draft Shutter System Back Draft Shutter System for 150mm Ducting This back draft shutter suitable for Isodrive 650 motor only. Flexi duct To fan Direction of airflow Use duct tape to secure flexi duct to shutter system In line shutter system Air flo w Flexi duct Mount shutter system as close to Isodrive fan as practicable IMPORANT If shutter system is mounted in the horizontal position, shutter shaft should be vertical. Direction of airflow Part number: 150mm in line BDSS.
5. Back Draft Shutter System Installation Example for Back Draft Shutter System (150mm Ducting, refer to figure 5) This back draft shutter suitable for Isodrive 650 motor only. Vertical Installation Figure 6 shows an example of vertical installation. If space is allowed, it could be installed near the ranghood outlet. Horizontal Installation If you have a narrow roof space, you can install the back draft shutter horizontally, refer to figure 7.
5. Back Draft Shutter System Back Draft Shutter System Fitment to Bell-mouth Adaptor This back draft shutter suitable for Isodrive 650 motor only. This back draft shutter system cannot be installed in eave type installation. Back draft shutter system Bell-mouth adaptor 100mm pipe to fan IMPORANT If shutter system is mounted in the horizontal position, shutter shaft should be vertical.
6. Installation Examples Single Motor Installation Example Use smooth flowing curves for maximum airflow. Remove excess ducting by trimming to length. DO NOT install motor in straight line to rangehood.
6. Installation Examples Twin Motor Installation Example Where two motors are to be used, follow the below methods for each motor then join into the “Y” piece prior to joining ducting to the canopy / rangehood. Refer figure 11.

8. Flexible Duct Flexible Duct Flexible ducting must be fully extended and cut to the required length upon installation, refer to figure 13. Maximum fan performance will not be achieved unless the ducting is fully extended. Failure to fully extend ducting results in a smaller air passage and lower airflows. Incorrect installation may reduce airflow or increase noise levels. Call outs relating to incorrect installation will result in a service fee directed to the customer.
8. Flexible Duct Shallow Roof Space In shallow roof spaces, do not crush or kink flexible ducting, as it will reduce air flow severely. 90 degree curve PVC or galvanise curve can be used as a substitute for the bend, refer to figure 14. 90 degree curve PVC or galvanise curve Figure 14 Important Note Please do not crush or kink flexible ducting, as it will reduce air flow and may cause noise to occur through the system. Ducting needs to be kept taut at all times.
8. Flexible Duct Securing Flexible Duct Flexible duct must be installed with supports at maximum intervals of 1.5 metres. Flexible ductwork can be supported by using gaffer or electrical tape. Provided that it does not restrict the internal diameter of the ducting. Ducting installed looped over hanging beams should be installed in such a manner as to ensure the changes of direction are gradual. Support of the ducting with the use of hangers may be require, see option 2.
9. Maintenance Roof Restoration or Cleaning Before doing your roof restoration or cleaning, please completely cover the outside motor system and avoid all chemical contact. IMPORANT Any damages caused by the use of chemical products are not covered by warranty.
