Make Opening (If Mounting in Drop Ceiling)
IMPORTANT
Be sure to choose an accessible position for the air
cleaner. Check that the area directly below the posi-
tion of the air cleaner is open and free and clear of
obstructions.
See Fig. 4 and use these instructions to mount the F118 as
part of a drop ceiling:
1. Remove the tile(s) from the drop ceiling to open a space
of approximately 24 x 48 in. (610 x 1220 mm). The area
between the drop ceiling and the structural ceiling must
be at least 12 in. (345 mm) and clear of ducts, pipes,
and other obstacles.
2. Size and frame the opening to fit the air cleaner cabinet
as closely as possible. The cabinet must fit snugly in the
opening; allow no more than 1/4 in. (6 mm) from the
opening to each side of the cabinet.
3. Cover the framing and any unused portion of the open-
ing with wallboard, plywood, or other material. Finish to
match the ceiling.
