STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1.
Depending on your needs, the ThruWall
Conversely, cold air falls and is found near the floor. The temperature of the air near the ceiling may be as much as 10°F to 15°F higher than near the floor. Start
by making sure that there are NO studs, water, drain, electrical or other obstructions in the wall where you wish to install the unit. Please see the airflow direction
label on the housing.
Step 2.
Place template flush against wall. Check for level and tape in place. Note: The wall that the template is taped to will be the fan output side.
Step 3.
Cut out the opening with a small drywall saw. Take care not to damage the edge of the drywall since you will be installing drywall anchors close to the
hole to mount the grille.
Step 4.
Insert the grille with fan attached into the hole that you just cut. Make sure the fan is level and that the grille completely covers the opening. Mark the
location of the 4 mounting holes.
Step 5.
Remove fan from hole and drill mounting holes with a sharp 3/16" drill bit. Insert wall anchors in mounting holes.
Step 6.
Project the edge of the round section of the cutout onto the inside of the other wall board in three places, approximately 120° apart. Use a small square or
a piece of cardboard that has an exact 90° angle to mark the cutout points on the inside of the other wall.
Step 7.
Use a small pin or very small drill bit (1/32" or smaller) to punch or drill these three marks to the outside of the other wall.
Step 8.
Place the sleeve without the grille attached, against the outside of the wall and center its location using the three holes that you made. Then trace the
outside of the sleeve with a pencil. Cut the circular opening with a small drywall saw. Cut inside the pencil line. Take care not to damage the edge of the drywall.
You will be installing drywall anchors close to the holes to mount the grille.
Step 9.
Take the electrical box cover off of the molded on electrical box and install a 3/8" strain relief that is appropriate for your 120VAC power supply wire
and/or conduit.
Step 10.
Insert your 120VAC power supply wires through the strain relief and use the providedwire nuts to connect the white (common), black (hot), and green
(ground) wires from the TW208P ThruWall fan to the appropriate common, hot and ground wires of your incoming power wires.
Step 11.
Check to see that your strain relief is securely fastened and re-attach the electrical box cover.
Step12.
Insert the metal sleeve with grille into the cutout opening (fan output side) and screw the grille down snugly.
Step13.
Insert the other metal sleeve into the cutout opening (fan suction side) and snug the flange up against the wall material.
Step14.
Position the unattached plastic grille over the metal sleeve that was just inserted so that the logo on the center of the grille is right side up and that one of
the mounting holes is in the top center. Adjust the metal sleeve so that the three U shaped cut outs in the flange match up with the mounting holes in the grille. Mark
the location of all 3 wall anchors.
Step 15.
Drill the holes on the wall for the anchors with a sharp 3/16" drill bit. Install wall anchors and screw the grille down snugly.
