The EVENAIR® is not designed for installation in the main air supply ducts. Locating the EVENAIR® near the outlet end of a problem branch duct will provide the best performance. The EVENAIR® is designed to operate in round metal or flexible type ducts. EXAMPLE: Use the 6" KS EVENAIR® for 6" ducts and the 8" KS EVENAIR® for 8" ducts. For larger duct diameters than indicated or for rectangular ducts, use the Model JR-1 or JR-2 EVENAIR® or the Model AB-1 Air Booster. CAUTION: The EVENAIR® should not be installed into vertical duct pipes. Do not use this product on clothes dryer vent pipe.

Page 2 Page 3 Figure 3A Figure 3B INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Locate the EVENAIR® in the duct pipe near the problem area. Allow adequate space for the removal of the unit for servicing or annual inspection. FOR METAL DUCT PIPE 1 1. Separate the duct at a joint near the problem area and cut 6-3/4" off the end of the duct pipe. (See Figure 1) 2. An alternative method is to cut a 5-3/4" section out of the duct pipe. (See Figure 2) Then crimp the end of the duct pipe with at least 1" crimp. (See Figure 3) 3. Install the EVENAIR® unit with the crimped end pointing toward the problem area. (See Figure 3) Secure the unit with sheet metal screws and seal joints with duct tape. Support the unit with an acceptable hanging method. 4. (Complete this step for KS-5, KS-6 & KS-8 ONLY.) Remove center knockout from the outlet box bottom. (See Figure 3A) Before installing the EVENAIR® into the duct pipe, fasten the outlet box onto the unit housing with the #10-32 UNF screws and nuts provided. (See Figure 3B) FOR FLEXIBLE DUCT 1. Cut and separate the flexible duct. Fold back the outer insulation on the duct to expose the flexible duct material. (See Figure 4) 2. Insert the EVENAIR® unit, with the crimped end pointing toward the problem area, into the flexible duct and secure with duct tape. (See Figure 4) 3. Support the unit with acceptable hanging method. Then re-install outer insulation and secure with duct tape. Allow room for installation of an electrical junction box. Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 UNIT WIRING INSTRUCTIONS A permanent wiring method must be used for power connection. It is recommended that a minimum size of 14 AWG wire for electrical supply connections and wiring should be suitable for 90oC (194oF) temperature. The EVENAIR® should be wired with an overcurrent protection device (fuse or circuit breaker) rated 15 amperes or less. Wiring method should be in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local code requirements. All wiring connections should be within an electrical junction box. CAUTION: Disconnect electrical power before wiring. Do not route electrical wiring along heated duct pipes. Unit should be grounded. WIRING METHOD NO.1 (See Figure 5 for wiring diagram) Controlling the EVENAIR® through a standard ON/OFF wall switch. This method allows for manual control of the EVENAIR® unit in the area desired. WIRING METHOD NO.2 (See Figure 6 for wiring diagram) Controlling the EVENAIR® through a central heating/air conditioning forced air system. This method allows for automatic operation of the EVENAIR® unit. The EVENAIR® is wired in parallel with the appliance blower motor. This operates the EVENAIR® whenever the appliance blower operates. CAUTION: Do not wire the EVENAIR® to an appliance blower motor if: 1. The appliance blower motor is not rated for 120 volts AC single phase and operating at 60 cycles. 2. The blower motor control is a variable speed tap type, solid state speed control or any of the type of controls not designed for dual motor control. Consult appliance manual for this information. WIRING METHOD NO.3 (See Figure 7 for wiring diagram) Controlling the Air Booster through a Field Controls ABA-1 Air Booster Activator, for automatic control of the Air Booster without wiring directly to the appliance blower motor. NOTE: All wire splice connections should be made within an electrical junction box. MAINTENANCE CAUTION: Disconnect electrical power supply before performing maintenance. Periodic removal and cleaning of the EVENAIR® unit is recommended for forced central heating/air conditioning systems. Annual removal and cleaning of the EVENAIR® unit is recommended for gravity warm ...
