セットアップとインストール
This section outlines the general steps for installing the Akicon BPT16-14EL-L12 exhaust fan. For detailed diagrams and specific instructions, refer to the included installation guide or consult a qualified electrician.
1. インストール前の考慮事項
- Measure Room Size: Ensure the fan's 90 CFM capacity is suitable for your room (up to 85 sq. ft.).
- 天井開口部: The recommended ceiling opening size is approximately 9-7/8" x 9-7/8". If replacing an existing fan, measure the current opening. If the existing opening is smaller, it will need to be enlarged to accommodate the new housing.
- ダクト: Plan for a 4-inch round duct connection. Use rigid metal ducting for best performance.
- 電気配線： Ensure a 120V AC power supply is available. The fan and light can be wired to operate jointly or separately via wall switches.
画像の説明: This image displays the critical dimensions for installation. It shows the fan housing size as 9-3/8" x 9-3/8" x 7-5/16", the grille cover size as 11" x 11", and the recommended ceiling opening size as 9-7/8" x 9-7/8". This helps ensure proper fit during installation.
画像の説明: An installation notice highlighting the housing dimensions (9.4" x 9.4" x 7.7") and emphasizing that the opening hole size should be based on the housing size. It advises checking existing opening sizes for replacements and cutting the hole to match the new housing if necessary.
2. Mounting the Fan Housing
- ブレーカーで電源をオフにします。
- Cut the ceiling opening to the specified dimensions (approx. 9-7/8" x 9-7/8").
- Secure the fan housing to ceiling joists using appropriate fasteners. The housing is designed for screw-in installation. Ensure it is firmly attached to prevent vibration and noise.

3.ダクト接続
- Connect a 4-inch round duct to the fan's exhaust collar. Secure with duct tape or clamps.
- Route the duct to an exterior vent cap, ensuring minimal bends and a slight downward slope away from the fan to prevent condensation buildup.

4. 電気配線
- Open the wiring compartment on the fan housing.
- Connect the household wiring to the fan's wiring according to local electrical codes. The fan and light have separate wires, allowing for independent operation if desired (e.g., separate wall switches for fan and light).
- Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated. Close the wiring compartment cover.
5. Install Grille Cover
- If the LED bulb is not pre-installed, screw the 12W E26 base LED bulb into the socket.
- Attach the grille cover to the fan housing. Typically, this involves inserting mounting springs into slots in the housing and pushing the grille firmly against the ceiling.
Once installation is complete, restore power at the circuit breaker and test the fan and light functions.
操作手順
The Akicon BPT16-14EL-L12 exhaust fan and LED light are designed for simple operation via standard wall switches.
- ファン操作： Flip the designated wall switch to turn the exhaust fan ON or OFF.
- 軽い操作: Flip the designated wall switch to turn the LED light ON or OFF.
- If wired separately, the fan and light can be controlled independently. If wired jointly, both will activate simultaneously.
For optimal moisture and odor removal, operate the fan during and after showering or bathing for at least 15-20 minutes.
メンテナンス
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your exhaust fan. Always disconnect power at the circuit breaker before performing any maintenance.
1. Cleaning the Grille Cover
