VENTING REQUIREMENTS
The vent system must terminate to the outside via the roof or side wall. Never terminate the vent system to an attic or
other enclosed area.
Do not use 4" laundry-type wall caps.
Use aluminum venting only.
Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow.
Before installation, collect the following measurements:
1.
Ceiling height
2.
Distance from floor to stove or counter top
3. Distance from stove or counter top to range hood
3.
Height of hood and duct cover
FOR THE MOST EFFICIENT AND QUIET OPERATION
A distance of 28"-31" is recommended between the stove top and the bottom of the range hood.
It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof through 6" or larger round aluminum
venting.
Use no more than three 90° elbows. Make sure there is a minimum of 24" of straight vent between the elbows if more
than one is used. Never install two elbows together.
