DUCT INSTALLATION:
Before fixing, the outlet exhaust duct for air evacuation
to the outside must be installed. Use an outlet exhaust duct
with: minimal length, minimal possible bends (maximum
angle of bend 90o
), certified material (according to local
building code), if flexible ducting is used it should be metallic and
as smooth as possible inside.
It is also advisable to aviod any drastic changes
in duct cross-section (recommended diameter = 6”).
Use fasteners to secure duct.
DUCTLESS INSTALLATION:
1. Remove stainless steel filter and replace with combination filter furnished with
Ductless Conversion
Kit
(sold separately).
2. Remove backdraft damper. (Damper supplied with ventilator)
3. Install the 6” round to 7” round
transition
over the exhaust of unit.
4. Connect
7” round duct
to transition.
5. Cut hole in bottom of soffit to allow clearance for the
90
o
angle boot.
6.
Locate center of
4-1/4” x 10” opening
on soffit - at
horizontal centerline of hood
and at least 25”
above top of liner.
7. Layout 4-1/4” x 10” pattern and cut opening in soffit.
8. Insert
90
o
angle boot
into soffit opening and connect boot to 7” round duct.
9. Install grille (included with ductless kit) into soffit opening.
10. Use duct tape to make all connections secure and air tight.
FITTING UNDER SOFFIT OR CABINET:
1. Before affixing the ventilator under soffit or cabinet, cutout a rectangle
according to the dimensions of the unit (19-1/2” wide X 10-1/4” deep) and in the appropriate location.
There will need to be adequate room to run the 6”
diameter exhaust ducting. In any case, check the position of the power outlet and consider where the
power cable will run, since a hole might have to be made in the wall to accomodate it.
2. Unscrew the 2 visable screws located on the face plate of the ventilator unit, the eight mounting holes
around the perimeter of the unit are now accessible.
3. Lift the ventilator and fit through the opening of the cabinet or soffit. Secure unit using 8 long mounting
screws. Fit the face plate on the ventilator and secure using the 2 screws provided.
4. Make electrical connections.
