how do you make the hole in the basement wall to vent the unit outside? do you bolt it on to the sheetrock wall?

I used a 6" hole saw to drill a hole throught the end joist. My unit is installed in an unfinished basement. I used concrete anchors to bolt it to the cinder block foundation. I'm guessing here, but if your basement is finished, you may have a drop ceiling or ceiling to go through to access the end joists.

Hello Michael, The instructions are fairly clear on the installation. What seems to be your question? I use a 6 1/4 drill saw to go through the foundation.

No, you just hang it from the ceiling. I quess you can put that exterior in the drywall but it has little holes so if you do that there won't be any venting when the lights get hot.

You should be able to install it on the wall. you probably have to snake the wire behind the sheetrock.

I installed one of these as a bathroom exhaust fan--used a ceiling vent plate that had a 4"duct nipple (you can use an A/C ceiling plate) and then ducted it into the attic to the TD-100 and then more duct to the house ridge vent. I used regular Romex 14-2 with a ground from a timer to the fan. The fan has a connection box on it to make the connections using compression screws that are all supplied.

Yes. It SHOULD / must be vented outside to be effective. The unit contains everything needed to make a correct installation through an exterior (frame) wall. You supply the electric wiring.

Yes. Mine is in the basement against the wall but not attached. So far, so good.

If you already have a vent to the outside or you will have to do it yourself.Comes with... but may have to buy the clamps to fit

No you cannot, this unit needs to be connected to a ducting that is properly vented to the outside!

The directions say it must be installed with it lower on the outside of the wall hole than the inside of the hole. In that way any water that gets inside because of condensation or rain will run to the outside of the unit. Good luck. Mine has been running 2 years straight with no stopping. I love it.

I cut a hole in the sheetrock to fit it in so that it is flush to the wall. There are no holes on the back but it's very easy to just put a screw through it

I installed mine and i hooked it up to the existing duct that vents outside....pretty easy

Sorry, I don't know the answer to your question. Because I have crank open windows, I wasn't able to vent the unit through a window. I opted to drill a hole through an exterior wall for the vent and placed a dryer vent on the outside for the connection.

Tony... would it help if I scanned the directions so you can see exactly where and how they mount it? The previous answer by James H was right on. The directions show it screwed into the outside sill. The holes need to be siliconed in after you remove the mount for the winter unless you choose to leave the mount in place over the winter. Sorry to be so late in responding. There are plastic or vinyl leveling blocks included to change the level and there is a small buble level on the unit.

You will have to purchase a drywall mounting bracket separately. If you are cutting in a new hole in the Sheetrock they make brackets specifically for that.

no. This is not need for this unit. Unit mount on the outside of house and is self vented.

YES that is how I use it 2 vent my cat box area outside. I mounted it outside just beneath the soffit.

It can be configured to either vent out the front or if you have the ventilation ducting to outside you can direct it up through a duct in the top (through the cabinets above it) or out the wall behind it. Other than mustering up the courage to cut a hole in the side of my house, and measuring about 6 times to make sure it was in the correct location, it was actually pretty easy to make it vent out through the wall.
