INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

This window fan has been designed to fit double-hung, slider, and casement windows. For safety, we recommend you leave your window screen in place.  

For double hung and slider windows
Note: For slider windows, set the fan vertically in your window opening, with the left side on the bottom.  

1. Set the fan into your window opening.
2. If the fan does not fit snugly to the top and bottom of the window casing, attach the included extender panel(s) and pull out the built-in extender screen until the fan sits safely in your window (See Figure 2).
3. To keep the fan in place, carefully close the window so that the bottom edge of the window rests on the flat area on the top of the fan.

For casement windows
For a safe fit you will need a specially designed mounting bracket.  This, and the needed hardware, can be provided to you free of charge.  Installation instructions are included with the bracket. Please call the Consumer Service number located at the end of this manual.
