Ducting Options And Examples; Installation - ELICA ECN636S3 Guía De Instalación, Uso Y Mantenimiento

Ducting options
Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.
All responsability, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this
manual, is declined.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with
a 6" (15.2 cm) round transi-
tion for discharge of fumes
to the outside.
Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist
or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the
materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.

Installation

Ceiling support structures
This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structure and support
must be provided in all types of installations.
At the hood location, install 2"x 4" cross framing between
ceiling joists as shown. (2"x 4" are required to support
the weight of the hood.)
Arrange cross framing in the ceiling to suit the existing
structure.
Your ceiling joists will be like one of the following:

B
A
A. 6" round Transition
B. 6" round duct
Ductless (Recirculating)
In cases where it should not
be possible to discharge
cooking fumes and vapour
to the outside.
Attach a charcoal filter and
the deflector on the duct
cover support bracket.
Fumes and vapours are
recycled through the top
grille by means of a duct
connected to the transition
and the transition mounted
on the deflector.
See accesories section.
I CAUTION
For gas cooktop & range installations: Mount the hood so the
bottom is at least 30" (76.2 cm) above the cooking surface.
For electric/induction cooktop & range installations: Mount the
hood so the bottom is at least 24" (61 cm) above the cooking
surface.
There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recom-
mend mounting the hood no greater than 36" (91.4 cm) above
the cooking surface. For every inch (2.54 cm) above 36" (91.4
cm), fume and moisture capture efficiency diminishes at an in-
creasing rate and may not deliver an acceptable level of venti-
lating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC
APPLICATION. Check your ceiling height and hood height
before selecting your hood.
