Installation Preparation
This Hood Must Use 7" Round Duct.
It Can Transition To 3-1/4" x 12" Duct.
Do NOT use flexible plastic ducting.
NOTE: Any home ventilation system, such as
a ventilation hood, may interrupt the proper
flow of combustion air and exhaust required by
fireplaces, gas furnaces, gas water heaters and
other naturally vented systems. To minimize
the chance of interruption of such naturally
vented systems, follow the heating equipment
manufacturer's guidelines and safety standards
such as those published by NFPA and ASHRAE.
When applicable, install any makeup (replacement)
air system in accordance with local building
code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for
available makeup air solutions.
Using a smaller diameter duct size
will reduce performance.
