INSTALLATION RESTRICTIONS

Do not install the DUCT BOOSTER® where temperatures of air within the duct

exceed 200

O

F. This temperature would only rarely be found on a forced warm

air system but could exist close to the furnace on a gravity warm air system.

Locating the DUCT BOOSTER® near the outlet end of a duct will provide the

most efficient performance.
The DUCT BOOSTER® must be installed with the motor shaft horizontal. It

can be installed on the bottom or top of a horizontal duct or any side of a

vertical duct.

CAUTIONS

1. Failure to install, maintain and/or operate the DUCT BOOSTER® in accor-

dance with manufacturer’s instructions may result in conditions which can

produce bodily injury and property damage.

2. Disconnect power supply when making wiring connections and servicing the

DUCT BOOSTER®. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or

equipment damage.

3. Make certain the power source is adequate for the DUCT BOOSTER®

requirements.

ADJUSTMENT OF VARI-DRAFT DAMPER

The DUCT BOOSTER® is shipped from the factory so that the maximum CFM

is established when unit is installed. To reduce the CFM, slide the Vari-Draft

damper so it will penetrate into duct further. Adjustments should be made prior

to installing the DUCT BOOSTER® into duct.
