INSTALLING THE CHIMNEY HOOD
DUCTING
The hood is more effective when used in the
extraction mode (ducted to the outside).
When used in the extraction mode ensure the
ducting spigot has been correctly fitted as
illustrated.
The ducting used must be

125
(5ins) or

Æ
150mm (6ins), flexible or
rigid and must be manufactured
from fire retardant material,
produced to BS.476 or DIN.4102-
B1. The choice should be made by
the installer. However, we
recommend flexible ducting should
only be used as an accessory as
rigid ducting will provide better
performance while reducing noise
levels.
The ducting flange
B
should be sleeved over
the spigot
A
when using 125mm (5ins)
ducting as the European ducting spigot is
Æ
120mm.
Ducting kits can be obtained from Kitchen
Specialist Distriutors, Builders Merchants and
DIY stores.
When the chimney hood is ducted to the
outside the charcoal filter must be removed.
RECIRCULATION
If you are using the hood in the recirculation
mode, ensure the charcoal filter is in position.
