screws through the pilot holes in its sides. Mounting anges

Use a high-quality latex caulk to seal all wood-to-wood and 
wood-to-metal seams within the rough opening.
Use bolts to fasten fan cone to fan and latches to fasten 
ductwork to fan cone. 
Once the fan, fan cone, ductwork, and AirDoor have been 
successfully connected, seal these seams with the provided 
aluminum tape.
Seal the AirDoor’s outside seams with the provided aluminum 
tape at: 1) each corner; 2) where the transition meets the
