Ductless (Recirculating) Installation Through the Soffit/Cabinet
The range hood can be vented inside through the top of the cabinet.
Measure and mark a round duct opening in the cabinet ceiling or in the
soffit above the duct opening of the range hood. Use a saber saw or
keyhole saw to cut a round opening for the soffit/cabinet vent.
For ductless (recirculating) installations, charcoal filters are necessary. See
the "Range Hood Care" section for instructions on installing charcoal filters.
