Where to run Fantastic Fan wiring?

Postby tony.latham » Sun Sep 08, 2013 7:56 pm

Okay, I THINK I've got it. Take a peak at the photo. Right now I've got the wiring running into the fan hole at A, but I can move it over to B. Which one is closer to where the fan's wires are? (The unfoamed area is where my fan wire is coming from. you can see it running left to right into the cutout and taped in place.)

If you left enough of a gap between the wood frame and the fan frame you can use either location. The wires will tuck into that space. You should have at least a 14.5" opening in that direction. There is also a trim piece that has to fit in that gap. It would help to have the fan for dry fitting first.

Hopefully the fan will be here tomorrow, but you know how that goes. The hole is 14 & 3/8's right now. If one were looking at an installed Fantastic fan from the galley, and describing it as a square clock face, would the electrical connection in the fan be at about ten or eleven o'clock? :thinking:

I ran mine in the A position. That matches where the wires in the fan stub out.
