Step 1 - Building the Mounting Box
Build a mounting box around the area where you want to install
your fan. The mounting box may be constructed from 2x4 boards
for wood frame structures or a prefabricated sheet metal mounting
box may be used for commercial applications. The mounting box
must accept an 18"x18" square housing and allow the wall mount
fan to extend roughly 11" to the inside of the structure from the
mounting surface (see Figure 1).
If the location where you wish to install the wall mount fan
uses 16" on center support studs, a framing cripple will
be required. Consult a local contractor for assistance if
needed.
When your mounting box is finished, you will need cut a vent hole
in the exterior wall. For wood frame structures, use a reciprocating
saw to cut the wall vent hole roughly 1" larger on all sides than the
mounting box (see Figure 2). This will allow room for securing the
fan unit to the mounting box surface. For commercial applications,
the size of the wall vent hole will depend on the dimensions of the
prefabricated mounting box.
Step 2 - Remote Mounted Solar Panel
Begin by Locating the power cable included with your Attic Breeze
solar attic fan. Make sure the power cable is long enough to reach
the location where the remote solar panel will be installed.
If additional power cable length is needed for your
installation, Attic Breeze offers a 40 foot extended power
cable as an available option.
Route the power cable through the attic, starting from the fan area
to the location where your remote solar panel will be installed and
secure the power cable in place. The power cable may be routed
out of the attic by bringing the cable through an existing passive
vent, penetrating a gable wall and running the cable along the
roof eve, or simply routing the power cable directly through the
roof. When making any wall or roof penetration, caulk around the
penetration using a roof-grade weatherproof sealant.
Install the solar panel mounting brackets per the instructions
included with your specific Attic Breeze bracket kit. Plug in the
power cord to the connector on back of the remote solar panel
and securely mount the solar panel/bracket assembly as required
to your roof or structure.
Step 3 - Installing the Fan
Remove all packaging material and tape from your fan. If installing
a Breeze Mate® control system, please follow the instructions
included with that product at this time. Holding the fan unit close to the vent hole, plug the power cable from the solar
panel or Breeze Mate® connector into the power cable connector on the fan (black cable).
ATTENTION:
KEEP THE SOLAR PANEL COVERED DURING INSTALLATION. After the power cable is connected, your
Attic Breeze solar fan may begin operating immediately when exposed to sunlight.
