1)
A straight, short duct run will
allow the hood to perform more effi-
ciently. Try to limit the number of
elbows and transitions to as few as
possible. Long duct runs, elbows and
transitions will reduce the perform-
ance of the hood.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
All hoods must exhaust to the out-
doors. There is a possibility of noise
issues, if there is a short duct run
coupled with a remote blower.
2)
Always use metal ducting. Do not
use flex ducting.
3)
Wolf recommends installing a
back-draft damper in all installations
(included with hood). In cold weather
installations a back-draft damper is
necessary to minimize the backflow
of cold air into the room.
4) Wolf recommends the hood be
installed 30”-36” above the cooking
surface.
5) Local building codes may require
the use of make-up air. Consult your
local HVAC professional for specific
requirements in your area.
