CLOUDLINE FAQ
Q: I am missing my controller. It wasn't included in my package!
A: Please refer to page 7 for an image of what your controller should look like. Your controller
should be neatly slotted in the box by this product manual.

Q: Where is the best place to position the sensor probe?


A: Place the sensor probe as close as possible to the hottest or most humid spot in your space.

Q: Do I need to remove the plastic cap from the probe?


A: Yes. You will need to remove the plastic cap so the probe can accurately read climate conditions.

Q: Can I mount this inline duct fan vertically?


A: Yes. The CLOUDLINE can be mounted in any orientation, including vertically.

Q: Will I be able to hardwire this fan to my own controller or thermostat?


A: We do not recommend hardwiring or splicing our fan's power wires. Such modifications may
compromise electrical safety and will void this product's warranty.

Q: Do I need to use a power converter if I'm outside the US?


A: This product's voltage range is 100-240V AC. You may need a simple travel adapter to plug it
into a foreign socket, or a power converter if your country uses a different voltage.

Q: Does the controller retain its settings after power is shut off?
A: Yes. If the controller's power is cut off and is powered on afterwards, your settings will remain.

Q: I'm not getting enough airflow even after setting the fan speed to 10. What can I do?
A: Bends in ducting will reduce your fan's CFM performance. To retain airflow, you may straighten
the ducting and eliminate as many bends as possible.
