Transport and Packaging
- The packaging of your fan has been designed to protect the fan and to ensure its proper
functioning. The fan should always be re-packaged in its original packaging before shipment. Any
alteration to the original packaging can damage the fan and will void any applicable warranty.
- The fan should be stored in a dry place in its original packaging, protected from dust and dirt until
it is installed. Do not accept delivery of your fan if the fan is not in its original packaging or shows
clear signs of having been damaged in any way.
- Do not place heavy objects on the packed fan and avoid knocking it over or dropping it as this
may cause the fan to become unbalanced. If you have any questions about the condition of your
fan upon receipt, contact Viagrow™.
Installation:
- Professional electricians only should carry out installation of your fan. If you have any questions
about your competency to install this fan correctly, consult with a professional electrician. Failure

should not be connected to a vent duct used to exhaust smoke or fumes from any appliance that
uses gas or other types of fossil fuel.

ventilator.
