
When installed behind a gas hob, the airbox should be positioned so that the bottom of the
intake is at a minimum height of 150mm above the hob to prevent the gas flame being drawn
into the intake. For optimum performance install higher, as above.

When installed behind an electric hob, the airbox should be installed as for gas but, can be
positioned so that the bottom of the intake surround is at bench level. However for optimum
performance it should be installed 250 ‐ 300mm above the bench.

The air box should be connected to the motor using Supertube and all joints sealed with duct
tape to prevent air leaks.

To install Supertube the wall noggins or dwangs will need to be checked out 60mm to allow
flush fitting before the wall lining is fitted. Alternatively, the nogs can be removed and the
airbox can be framed as for a window and ducting can be mounted between “jack” studs.

Ducting required for this unit is Supertube and must be sealed to the airbox using Parmco
duct tape. Ensure that all joins in the suction side of the Motor are sealed.

If it is necessary to use flexi ‐ duct in this connection, care should be taken not to damage or cut
the flexi ‐ duct inside the wall.

The wall lining fits in behind the flange on the front of the air ‐ box.

Ducting from wall ducting to the motor can then be installed ensuring all joints are sealed.

If a splash back is to be installed, the Grille & Surround will need to be cut into the splash back
and the Surround should be supplied before the cut is made.
