OUTSIDE PATIO or LANAI
INSTALLATION
Construction methods and installation shall comply with all local building codes. Internal
ducting shall be sealed using outdoor rated metal tape.
The Twin Eagles hood with stainless steel canopy is approved for installation in an outside patio or
lanai area if the area is covered with a protective roof over the hood
(wall style hoods are to be also
mounted to a solid protective rear wall)
and installed with a GFCI protected branch circuit. Roof or
Wall Caps are to be sealed to prevent moisture migration to structure interior; use an outdoor rated
sealant suitable for adhesion to the installation materials. See
FIG 6

CAP
The roof shall cover the top of the hood and extend a minimum of 42” from each side of the hood and
30” minimum from the outer edges of the hood front.
Since, outdoor areas are subject to strong cross drafts it is recommended that the hood extend at
least 3 inches and preferably 6 inches, over either side of the cooking area to maximize the cooking
discharge capture area. Cross drafts will affect the efficiency of the ventilation system and cooking
discharge can escape capture by the hood/ventilation system. Be sure to plan for adequate ventilator
(blower) capacity to minimize cross drafts influencing the removal of cooking discharges.
The installation instructions that accompanies the hood shall be followed to ensure all safety instruc-
tions and guidelines are adhered to.
See FIG 10 for structure with elevated roof / ceiling.
Suitable for use in damp locations when installed in
a GFCI protected branch circuit.
