e. Install the required chimney anchor plate to the top
of the cabinet. Use a 1/8” (4mm) bead of gasket
cement to seal the flange to the cabinet. Install the
chimney according to the manufacturer’s instructions;
follow the instructions exactly.
7. Install the air ducts. Before installing the air duct
boxes, you may wish to paint the inner surfaces with
high temperature stove paint (or other high
temperature paint) to reduce the glare from reflected
light.
Install the two air duct boxes in their framed openings.
(Fig. 46)
If desired, paint the inner surface of each air duct tube
for about 6” (152mm) to eliminate reflected glare;
attach this end to the air duct box flange.
Cut and fit the air duct tubing between the air duct
boxes and the top of the cabinet. NOTE: The ducting
used to connect the duct outlets on the enclosure
cabinet to the remote duct boxes is Class O/Class I.
Use no other class of ducting for this application. In
certain areas, local building codes may prohibit the use
of flexible ducting in enclosed spaces. In such cases it
is acceptable to use solid cutting that meets local code
requirements.
Cut the tubing a few inches too long with a serrated
kitchen knife - it can be compressed during installation.
The duct tubing must fit onto both the duct box and the
cabinet flanges the full length of the flanges 2”
(51mm)-all the way around.
Secure each end of the ducting to the appropriate
flange with three of the sheet metal screws provided.
Holes for the screws must be drilled first around the
perimeter through both the duct tubing and the flange
with a 1/8” (3mm) drill bit. Space the holes as evenly
as possible around the flange.
8. Install the elevated base. Slide the base into the
cabinet until it contacts the rear wall.
9. Install the optional cabinet convection blower
kit. The blower kit is an integrated unit housed in a
metal shell. ON the front side there is a flange
perpendicular to the housing. When properly installed,
this flange rests on the elevated platform and is
fastened to it with screws.
The back side of the blower housing has a flange that
rises parallel to the back side panel. This flange is
fastened with screws to the rear panel of the cabinet.
The power cord is routed to the left where it can be
connected to the lower receptacle of the cabinet
junction box.
