Above a central hallway or at the top of a stairwell will provide the best airflow. > Make sure that there aren t any pipes, wires, rafters or air conditioning or heating ducts running through the space where the GHOST will be installed. The GHOST can NOT be mounted vertically. > Make sure that you have adequate exhaust area out of your attic. This can be accomplished with a combination of roof, ridge or gable end vents. The GHOST requires a minimum of 9 square feet of attic exhaust area. > y y!

Tamarack Technologies, Inc.• 320 Main Street • Buzzards Bay, MA 02532 508-759-4660 • 800-222-5932 • Fax 508-759-6001 • Installation Tools and supplies needed: You will need the following items: two pieces of 2x stock to match your existing framing, a saw to cut the hole in the ceiling, a hammer or screw gun to attach the blocking to the existing joists, a Phillips head screw driver to attach the grille, weather strip material and low expansion spray foam sealant. 1. The fan housing will fit either 16 or 24 on center framing. Cut two pieces of 2x stock (2 x 6 or 2 x 8 etc.) of the same dimension as the existing joists. Add these pieces of framing to form a box between the joists (Figure 1). TIP: When the GHOST is to be installed in a hallway or other location with low ceilings, some homeowners find that building a box out of 2 x 10s or similar material will raise the GHOST to a position where the noise level will be reduced but the efficiency of the fans will not be diminished. 2. Cut a hole in the ceiling under where the GHOST will be installed. The hole should be no larger than 14 1/2" x 22 1/2". This will allow for the grille to cover the exposed edges. The suggested method for making the proper sized hole in the ceiling is; cut a pilot hole under where the fan will be installed (Figure 2). From above, using a saw, cut along the inside edge of the framework removing the ceiling panel and any strapping within the framework. Do not damage electrical wiring or other hidden utilities. 3. Install a foam weather stripping or other flexible material (not supplied) on the top of the joists and added framing. This will serve to seal between the housing and the framing as well as dampen vibrations. Check the joint between the ceiling and the 2x stock. Some types of ceilings are spaced away from the joists. Any gap between the 2x s and the ceiling should be sealed prior to final installation. (Figure 3) Use a low expansion spray foam sealant (not supplied). 4. Set the GHOST lower housing onto the framing. The lower housing will fit into the box with the mounting flanges overlapping the framing. DO NOT DRAG THE GHOST INTO POSITION AS THIS MAY SEVERLY DAMAGE IT. 5. Set the GHOST upper housing at an angle on top of the lower housing, orienting the upper housing so that the fan motor connections are located in the same corner (Figure 4). Push the fan electrical connection into the fan electrical feed. The connectors are keyed so they will only connect correctly (Figure 5). Figure1. Figure2. Figure3. Figure4. Figure5. 6. Rotate the upper housing until it lines up with the lower housing. Make sure the edges of the two housings mate all the way around the GHOST (Figure 6) and then pull the black attachment handles down over their attachment posts (Figure 7). 7. If desired, secure the GHOST to the top of the joists. 8. Plug the connector from the GHOST into the Control Box. Plug the Control Box into an unswitched, grounded receptacle. 9. Install the ceiling grille (screws provided). 10. Check the unit for proper operation: Turn the unit on -it will take 30 seconds for the doors to open. Fan starts -the fan should start and run smoothly. Be sure at least one window is open when the fan is operating. Figure6. Figure7.
