BEFORE INSTALLING THE HOOD
1 For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as
few elbows as possible.
CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.
2 At least two people are necessary for installation.
3 Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings, consult a Qualified Installer, check if they
perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.
4 Do not use flex ducting.
5 COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional
backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow
and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of
outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper
should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break
should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the
heated portion of the house.
6 Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of
Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems
greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified
CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC
professional for specific requirements in your area.
