inside requiring no ducting.

Connected Load (kW Rating) @ 120 Volts = 0.516 kW (For use on
adequately wired 120V, dedicated circuit having 2-wire service with a
separate ground wire. Appliance must be grounded for safe operation.)

Always consult local and /or national electric codes. Check local

provided, capable of supporting 150 lbs.

Ducted Option Specifications

For outside ventilation only.

Exhaust Duct Required – 8" round

For most efficient airflow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows 
as possible.

Use metallic flex ducting only to connect rigid duct directly to transitions

(if allowed by code)

.

Thermal breaks such as short section of nonmetallic duct, should 
be used in areas of extreme cold.

Cold weather installations should have additional backdraft damper
installed.

Refer to web for detailed duct preparation installation instructions.

Ductless (Recirculated) Option Specifications

If ducting to outside is not an option, vent hood can be converted to
ductless with use of optional Duct-Free Kit (RHDFP60GS).

Refer to web for detailed convertible ventilation installation instructions.

Pre-Installation Calculations

Select hood preference height (P) that is comfortable for user 
(24" - 30" minimum allowed, NOT more than 36" recommended).

Calculate hood height (H) for installation (H = K-C-P).

Confirm that (H) is within minimum to maximum range for hood. 
If not, adjust installation.

Calculate chimney structure height (S). Use formulas, check 
dimensions of hood. Save calculation for use later in installation.

Note: For planning purposes only. Refer to Product Installation Guide 

on the web at electroluxappliances.com for detailed instructions.
