Ducting version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special
pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood. Attention!
The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring. In the horizontal
runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about 10°) and directed upwards to vent the
air easily from the room to the outside. Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal
filter, then it must be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air
outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution
of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.

! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°).
! Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
! Use a duct with an as smooth as possible inside.
! The duct must be made of certified material.
