INSTALL THE DUCTWORK (Ducted Hoods Only)
1. Decide where the ductwork
will run between the hood
and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct
run will allow the hood to
perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows
and transitions will reduce
the performance of the
hood. Use as few of them
as possible. Larger ducting
may be required for best
performance with longer
duct runs.
4. Install wall cap or roof
cap. Connect round metal
ductwork to cap and work
back towards the hood
location. Use duct tape to
seal the joints between
ductwork sections.
MEASURE THE INSTALLATION
The minimum hood distance above cooktop MUST NOT BE LESS than 24" .
A maximum of 30" above cooktop is highly recommended for best capture of
cooking impurities.
Distances over 30" are at the installer and users discretion; providing that the ceil-
ing height permits.
NOTE:
On 7-ft 8-in. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 24" , Maximum 30" (for ducted discharge).
Minimum 24" , Maximum 29" (for non-ducted discharge).
On 8-ft. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 24" , Maximum 30" (for both ducted and non-ducted discharge).
On 9-ft. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 30" , Maximum 30" (for both ducted and non-ducted discharge).
