| Wall-to-Wall Cable Mount Installation |
|
Recommended for large, open areas. |
|
Baffles are arranged parallel with each other. |
|
Spacer bars may be used for arrangement and placement of baffles along the cable span. |
| Ceiling Mount Installation |
|
Avoid hanging baffles more than 10 feet below ceiling. Long tethering may cause baffles
to sway in areas with strong air currents. |
|
Use 1/16" cable or lightweight chain to hang baffles from the ceiling. |
|
Attach cable or chain to ceiling by looping it around ceiling joists or trusses. (Anchoring
eyes can also be used. Install them into the ceiling before you begin.) |
|
Once cable or chains are in place, attach the bottom end of the cables or chains to the
eye loop on top of the corkscrew hanger. |
|
Baffles can be aligned in the same direction or arranged so that every other baffle is turned
90 degrees. |
