Dayton 1WBW2 Weatherhood for 36 in Blade
This Dayton weatherhood fits a 36 in blade diameter and provides a closed-base shield for wall-mounted fan installations. The unit is built from 18 ga galvanized steel for corrosion resistance in outdoor or industrial environments. Overall dimensions are 40 1/4 in height, 40 1/4 in width and 29 in depth.
Replaces damaged or missing hoods on existing 36
Install this hood when the original weather protection has corroded or when a new wall opening is cut to the specified 38 1/2 in by 38 1/2 in size. The jump is worth it when the fan operates in exposed locations where rain, debris or wind-driven moisture would otherwise enter the building through the fan opening.
Limited to 36 in blade diameter
The hood only accommodates the listed 36 in blade size and requires a precise 38 1/2 in square cut-out, or 41 5/8 in square when a wall collar is used. Builders needing a different blade diameter, a non-square opening or a material other than galvanized steel must select another model.

Questions about this item
What cut-out size is required for the 36 in blade weatherhood?
The cut-out must be 38 1/2 in high by 38 1/2 in wide without a wall collar, or 41 5/8 in by 41 5/8 in when a wall collar is used.
How is the galvanized steel weatherhood mounted, and what step is often missed?
It bolts through the perimeter flange into the wall opening; the step often missed is sealing the flange perimeter with exterior-grade caulk before tightening the fasteners.
What maintenance does the 18 ga galvanized steel weatherhood need over time?
Inspect the galvanized finish annually for white rust or scratches, touch up any bare spots with cold-galvanising compound, and clear debris from the 29 in deep hood to maintain airflow.
