The vent hood must be installed 24" min., and 30" max. above the cooking surface. The telescopic duct cover conceals the ductwork running from the top of the hood to the ceiling. The duct cover is sized to reach 8 ft. to 10 ft. ceiling heights. The hood installation height, from the cooking surface to the bottom of the hood, depends upon ceiling height.

INSTALLATION OPTIONS

24" Min. 30" Max.

WALL-MOUNTED INSTALLATIONS

This hood may be installed onto a wall and vented to the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating operation. All necessary parts for a recirculating operation are shipped with the hood. No kits required.

*24" Min. *Depending on Cabinet Height

UNDER-CABINET INSTALLATIONS

The hood may be installed beneath a cabinet. The cabinet must measure at least 20" from the bottom frame to the inside top. See page 19.

- Both vented and recirculating operation can be accomplished in an under-cabinet installation. (Custom cabinet modification is required for recirculating operation.)

ADVANCE PLANNING

• Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
• Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.
• Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible. For satisfactory performance, duct run should not exceed 100 ft. equivalent length for any duct configurations.
• Refer to "Duct Fittings" chart to compute the maximum permissible length for duct runs to the outdoors.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside – do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

• Use metal ductwork only. These hoods must use 6" round duct. It can transition to 3-1/4" x 12", reducing the maximum equivalent duct length to 75 feet.
• Install a wall cap with damper or roof cap at the exterior opening. Order the wall or roof cap and any transition needed in advance.

Wall Framing for Adequate Support

• This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structural support must be provided in all types of installations. The hood must be secured to vertical studs in the wall, or to a horizontal support. For wall mounting installations, see pages 9 and 14. For under-cabinet installations, see page 20.
• The vent hood and wall cabinet, if used, should be on site before final framing and wall finishing. This will also help to accurately locate the duct work and electrical service.
