Unpacking your HV:
When you have unpacked your HV carefully you will find the following:
The Best Location for your HV:
The HV should be installed in your attic in a central location within your
home. Above a central hallway or at the top of a stairwell will provide the best airflow. The fan can be mounted vertically.
► Make sure that there aren’t any pipes, wires, rafters or air conditioning or heating ducts running through the space
where the HV will be installed and that the doors will open into an unoccupied area.
► Make sure that you have adequate exhaust area out of your attic. This can be accomplished with a combination of roof,
ridge, soffit or gable end vents or other attic exhaust points. The HV1000 requires a minimum of 2 square feet and the
HV1600 requires 3.5 square feet of clear exhaust area. Allow 50% loss of clear area for louvers and screens
► Make sure that there is enough clearance above the fan for the doors to open. The minimum requirement for the HV
with R22 insulating
doors is 11” and 12” is required for models with R38 insulating doors.
