REREQUISITES
Before you install your blower, you need to prepare your site for
installation. A dedicated source of electrical power must be
located near the installation site.
Carefully read this chapter to learn:
The location requirements for your installation site.
The mounting support requirements for your installation
site.
The electrical power requirements for your installation site.
The space requirements for your installation site.
Refer to Appendix B: Blower Dimensions for complete blower
dimensions.
Refer to Appendix C: Blower Environmental Conditions for

Location Requirements
In positioning your blower, care should be taken to make sure that
it is away from all other types of air handling equipment (intake
fans, air conditioning units, etc.). Your blower should also include
a minimum of 7 ft. of ducting above the roofline to generate proper
air dispersion of materials being exhausted through the blower.
Also consider the location of the blower inlet with respect to the
hood you are exhausting. Proper planning and layout are essential
in selecting a blower location.
