Caulk termination to duct.
2-3 ft straight run before elbow.
In attic installation,
caulk box to drywall.
Short piece of flexible duct
helps alignment and absorbs

all flex joints.
Foil tape tightly covers all metal
duct joints (glue PVC joints).Insulation.Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed
directly over the fan housing in the attic.
Panasonic fans and fan/light combination
units do not create excessive heat that is
a common problem with recessed light
fixtures or some competitors fan/light
combinations. Our efficient, cool-running
motors and our fluorescent bulbs do not
create enough ambient heat to be subjected
to these limitations.
Properly insulate the area around the fan
to minimize building heat loss and gain.
