General Notes
This Goldair product is designed only to be used as a fixed Heat/Light/Vent product,
installed into the ceiling. If the product is installed or used for any other purpose the
warranty will be void.
• Installation of this product must be completed by a registered electrician.
• Handle product with care, remove the bulbs during installation.
• The unit must be located and installed in accordance with the latest edition of
AS/NZS 3000 and any local regulation information for mounting in damp areas
(please consult your local electrician for information).
• The unit can be installed in any room that requires direct radiant heating and
circulated air flow such as bathrooms, ensuites, laundries, etc.
• The unit must be installed in flat ceilings with a minimum height of 2.1 metres from
the floor.
• Do not install the unit directly above shower or bath recesses or enclosures.
• Joints, beams and rafters must not be notched to install the appliance.
• The unit must not be installed in a position where water may splash onto the heat
lamps.
• The appliance shall, under no circumstances, be covered with insulating material or
similar material.
Clearance Requirements
• This unit must be mounted at least
250mm away from vertical walls.
• A minimum clearance of 100mm is
required above the top of the unit.
• A minimum of 50mm clearance is
required between the sides of unit and
joists, walls or insulation.
Ventilation Requirements
• For the exhaust fan to work efficiently,
replacement air of a volume equivalent to
what is being extracted must be able to
enter the room.
• Generally, air would be drawn under the
door, or through a slightly open window.
If the room is airtight, the fan will operate
poorly. Air flow path should ideally pass
over the steam source.
Heat lamps and light bulbs supplied with the
unit are test bulbs only, these are not
covered under the product warranty
General Notes
1. The unit may be mounted either between joists using the inbuilt clip fasteners or
against a joist using a screw through the flange plate.
2. The approximate cut-out size of the 2 Lamp unit is 355 x 200 mm.
3. The approximate cut-out size of the 4 Lamp unit is 310 x 300 mm.
Please note this is only an approximate measurement and any installation would
require a measurement against the physical product to ensure the best fit.
4. Mark the ceiling with a pencil showing the area of ceiling to be cut.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Goldair takes no responsibility for those instances where the physical
product is not measured first before the hole is cut in the ceiling.
5. Before commencing cutting ensure that the area behind the intended location is
clear of all cables, pipes and joists. Once clear, cut out the section along the
previously marked lines.
6. Remove the lamps from the housing by unscrewing them anticlockwise. Then
remove the decorative fascia from the housing by removing the spring clips that hold
it in place.
7. Insert the unit into the hole being sure to pull the side springs inward so that the
body can pass through the hole without damaging the plaster. Ensure that the unit is
held securely in place by clips. It is essential that additional screws (not supplied) are
used to aid holding the unit in the ceiling. Screw holes are provided in the flange for
this purpose. 2 strips of timber (one on each side) should be placed behind the holes
inside the ceiling to give the screws something to anchor to and to provide some
reinforcing. Do not secure the unit at this time.
8. Remove the unit from the ceiling and connect the wiring to the terminal block as per
the wiring diagram. This terminal block is on one corner of the back of the unit.
9. Attach ducting to extract the air to the outer wall using flexible ducting, clamps and
vent outlet grille provided. Fix and tighten the clamps firmly to hold the flexible duct
to the unit and the outer wall vent.
10.Insert the unit into the hole and secure as detailed in point 4 above.
11.Hold the fascia against the body of the appliance and the ceiling, then attach the
securing spring clips to hold the fascia in place.
12.Now screw in the heat lamps provided into the lamp holder through the holes
provided in the fascia. The globes should be screwed in firmly to ensure a good
electrical contact but don’t over tighten. Fit the small centre light bulb in the same
way ensuring that it is positioned centrally.
13.IMPORTANT NOTE: Over tightening of heat lamps or light bulbs may result in
damages to the lamp holders or lamps, take care when removing and replacing heat
lamps/bulbs.

Electrical Installation
Your Heat/Light/Fan unit comes with a wall switch included. Once wired correctly by your
electrician you need to simply follow the below instructions.
• To turn the centre light bulb on press the “LIGHT” switch down (and up to turn off).
• To turn the ventilation fan on press the “FAN” switch down (and up to turn off).
• To turn 2 heat lamps on press one of the “HEAT” switches down (and up to turn off).
• To turn all 4 heat lamps on press both of the “HEAT” switches down (and up to turn off).
Air Flow Requirements:
For maximum efficiency to remove steam and odours, there must be an adequate air flow
within the room. To obtain maximum air flow ensure there is a gap under doors or open
windows slightly. A good test for this is that the fan should not change speed (or sound)
when you close or open the bathroom door.
Important Note:
Always turn the fan on when using the heat lamps to minimise any undue heat build up
in the unit.
