chimney dimensions
Vented chimney dimensions
Note:
The hood chimneys are adjustable
and designed to meet varying ceiling or
soffit heights depending on the distance “
X
”
between the bottom of the hood and the
cooking surface. For higher ceilings, a 40”
(101.6 cm) Chimney Extension Kit No.
8212710 (Stainless Steel), 8212711 (White),
or 8212712 (Black) is available. The chimney
extension replaces the upper chimney
shipped with the hood. The chimney
extension can be cut as needed. For shorter
ceilings or soffits, the upper chimney can be
cut.
Important:
Minimum distance “
X
”: 24” (61.0 cm)
Suggested maximum distance “
X
”:
30” (76.2 cm)
For vented installations, the chimneys can
be adjusted for ceilings between 7’ 6-3/8”
(2.30 m) and 9’ 0” (2.74 m).
For non-vented (recirculating) installations,
the chimneys can be adjusted for ceilings
between 8’ 3-3/8” (2.45 m) and 9’ 5-1/4”
(2.88 m).
Important:
As hood height (distance X) increases,
hood's venting effectiveness decreases.
