Contractor shall install the SSD system as an active set-up and shall supply the fan and all related materials. Fan location is to be exterior or within unoccupied/unconditioned attic spaces with vent piping exhausted through the roof, as directly above the suction pit as feasible, minimizing any bends in and total length of vent pipe runs from pit to exhaust.

Additional Notes: Any exhaust piping that is visible within interior areas shall be boxed-in using sheetrock, then taped/prepped and painted to finish. An access door shall be provided for the air flow/pressure monitor and shall be labeled to properly identify the location of the system performance monitor.
