• Rangehood installation height above the cooktop is the user’s preference.
• Lower installation heights will improve the efficiency of capturing cooking odours, grease, and
smoke. This rangehood must be installed between the minimum and maximum dimensions
indicated in the table above.
Venting options
Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air are fulfilled.
The rangehood can be installed to operate with the exhaust air ducted externally from the kitchen, or installed to operate
with the exhaust air recirculating within the kitchen.
Ducted
For ducted installation it is recommended that 150 mm diameter, rigid or semi-rigid ducting is used. This will
require a 160 mm (min) round hole in the ceiling or wall. Care should be taken to position the hole correctly.
For optimal efficiency use the shortest and straightest duct route possible and use rigid or semi-rigid ducting for
reduced noise and increased airflow. Flexible metal ducting should only be used as a last resort (ie in difficult
installations) and if used ensure that it is straight and smooth and extended as much as possible.
Recirculating
To enable the product to operate with the air recirculating, please purchase a recirculation diverter and carbon
filters (refer to the ‘Parts and accessories’ section). This recirculation diverter is installed after a short length of
ducting and is required to channel the air out the side vents at the top of the chimney and the carbon filters are
required to remove odours.
A ducting hole is not required in the wall or ceiling if the rangehood is installed to operate
with exhaust air recirculating.
