Installation Requirements
Ducting options
The hood is equipped with a 10" (25.4 cm) round transition
for discharge of fumes to the outside.
Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.
Dacor is not responsible for any eventual inconveniences,
damages or fires caused by not complying with the
instructions in this manual.
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 the exhaust vent.
Mounting height
CAUTION
Mount this hood so that the bottom edge above the
cooking surface is at 30" (76.2 cm) minimum for a gas
cooking surface or 24" (60.9 cm) for an electric cooking
surface.
There is no maximum mounting height, however,
we recommend mounting the hood no greater than
36" (91.4 cm) above the cooking surface. For every inch
(2.5 cm) above 36" (91.4 cm), fume and moisture capture
efficiency diminishes at an increasing rate and may not
deliver an acceptable level of ventilating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
Check your ceiling height and hood height before
selecting your hood.
Horizontal discharge
A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the
hood.
