Learn how to safely install the Duux Whisper Flex 2 Smart extension tube. Follow these steps to extend your fan duct without damaging the unit.

Quick Answer

To install the Extension Tube on your Whisper Flex 2 Smart, align the tube with the fan outlet and push it on until it clicks into place. Avoid stacking two tubes; the extension is designed for single-tube use only.

Why the Extension Tube Fits Only Certain Models

The Extension Tube Whisper Flex 2 (Smart) is specifically designed for the DXCF74 and DXCF87 models. If you own a different Whisper Flex version, this tube may not fit properly, so always check your model number before purchasing.

The tube is a replacement part, not an accessory for stacking. Attempting to connect two tubes on top of each other can cause instability and reduce airflow efficiency.

What to Check Before You Start

Before installation, verify that your fan is unplugged and the outlet area is clean. Dust or debris can prevent a tight seal, leading to air leaks and reduced performance.

Inspect the extension tube for any damage or warping. A damaged tube may not seat correctly and could affect the fan's operation.

Installation Steps

Unplug and prepare: Turn off and unplug your Whisper Flex 2 Smart. Clean the fan outlet area with a dry cloth to remove dust or debris. Check that the outlet is completely dry before proceeding.
Align the tube: Hold the extension tube so that the wider end faces the fan outlet. Align any notches or guides with the corresponding slots on the fan. Misalignment is the most common cause of a loose fit.
Push and secure: Press the tube firmly onto the outlet until you hear a click or feel it seat securely. Do not twist excessively, as this may damage the locking mechanism. If it doesn't click, remove and realign before pushing again.
Test the connection: Gently tug the tube to confirm it is firmly attached. Then plug the fan back in and run it briefly to check for unusual noise or air leaks. If you notice a leak, reseat the tube; do not use tape or sealants.
