How do replace my AC unit with a Maxxair fan?
I got rid of the rotten old AC unit and want to replace it with a Maxxair. Problem is I don't know how to wire it. Do I have to run all new wire to the battery (or wherever it runs to) or can I use ...

I'm sure this is incredibly naive (which is why I'm gathering as much info as I can before doing anything) but what I'm really confused about is how I would connect the positive and negative 16 gauge wires of the fan to the one 16 gauge wire that would normally be running the light or furnace.
There isn't just one wire running anything, you need two - one for positive, another for negative. If this basic electricity fact escapes you then it's a pretty good indication you ought to leave this to someone who does understand electrical wiring. ;)
I know it needs a positive and negative that's why I asked the question pertaining to why I only see one wire. There is only one wire coming out of the fuse box labeled "furnace". So what I'm really wondering is if there is another wire coming from somewhere else that serves as the "ground".
I know not to do anything before I fully understand it and if that day never comes than so be it.. but I'm pretty sure given enough study I will figure this out. Thanks for help though. :p
