Heat-A-Ventlite
®
(with Night Light)
MODEL: 9965
FOR BEST RESULTS
In a new construction site, install the housing (complete
with heater and ventilator) during rough-in construction of the
building. The light assembly and the grille should be installed
when the finished ceiling is in place.
Installation in an existing, finished building requires an
accessible area (attic or crawl space) above the planned
location. See “INSTALLATION IN EXISTING
CONSTRUCTION.”
Do not install closer than 12 inches to a vertical surface.
Do not install over tub or shower enclosure.
UNIT DIMENSIONS
Refer to Figure 1
for housing's dimensions.
NOTE: If there will be a finished second floor above,
the Model 9965 housing requires a minimum of 2" x 8"
joist construction for mounting.
WIRING AND DUCTWORK
1. Run the required wiring during rough-in stage of
construction.
2. Total connected load: 1730 watts.
3. Plan to run 120vAC, 60 Hz wiring (with ground) on a
separate 20 Amp circuit from a power source, through
the provided wall switch, to the housing's junction box.
See wiring diagram.
4. Use 4" round duct.
