Prepare the Blower (Remote Site) (cont.)
• Solid copper 8-gauge bonding wire, 36" (914 mm)
Relocate the blower as close as possible to the bath to maximize performance. Do not relocate the
blower more than 15' (4.5 m) from the bath.
Position the blower 1-1/2" (38 mm) above the floor. Do not mount the blower motor with the
blower motor discharge pointing up.
Use 1-1/2" PVC or equivalent rigid piping.
The piping installation must meet the requirements of local plumbing or building codes. Ensure that
the installation does not reduce the fire rating of any walls. Piping must be supported at intervals
along the length in accordance with local codes.
Ensure that the blower motor location is clean and free of dust or debris.
Install an access panel for blower motor maintenance.
The 18 AWG minimum power cable to the blower motor must meet the requirements of all
applicable electrical or building codes. Ensure that the installation does not reduce the fire rating of
any walls.
The power cord must be supported at intervals along its length in accordance with local codes.
Power cords must not rest on surfaces or floors that are subject to flooding.
