الإعداد والتثبيت
This section outlines the general steps for installing the Akicon BPT16-14EL-L12 exhaust fan. For detailed diagrams and specific instructions, refer to the included installation guide or consult a qualified electrician.
1. اعتبارات ما قبل التثبيت
- Measure Room Size: Ensure the fan's 90 CFM capacity is suitable for your room (up to 85 sq. ft.).
- فتح السقف: The recommended ceiling opening size is approximately 9-7/8" x 9-7/8". If replacing an existing fan, measure the current opening. If the existing opening is smaller, it will need to be enlarged to accommodate the new housing.
- مجاري الهواء: Plan for a 4-inch round duct connection. Use rigid metal ducting for best performance.
- الأسلاك الكهربائية: Ensure a 120V AC power supply is available. The fan and light can be wired to operate jointly or separately via wall switches.
وصف الصورة: This image displays the critical dimensions for installation. It shows the fan housing size as 9-3/8" x 9-3/8" x 7-5/16", the grille cover size as 11" x 11", and the recommended ceiling opening size as 9-7/8" x 9-7/8". This helps ensure proper fit during installation.

2. Mounting the Fan Housing
- قم بإيقاف تشغيل الطاقة عند قاطع الدائرة.
- Cut the ceiling opening to the specified dimensions (approx. 9-7/8" x 9-7/8").
- Secure the fan housing to ceiling joists using appropriate fasteners. The housing is designed for screw-in installation. Ensure it is firmly attached to prevent vibration and noise.
