Ducting
A minimum of 6" (15 cm) round duct must be used
to maintain maximum airflow efficiency.
Always use rigid metal ducts only. Flexible ducts
could restrict airflow by up to 50%.
Use the Ducting Calculation Sheet to compute
the total available duct run when using elbows,
transitions and caps.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number of
transitions and turns. If a long duct run is required,
increase the duct size from 6" (15 cm) to 7" or 8"
(18 cm or 20 cm).
If turns or transitions are required, install as far
away from the hood duct output and as far apart
as possible.
Minimum mount height between range top and
hood bottom should be no less than 26" (66 cm).
Maximum mount height should be no higher than
34" (86 cm) above the range top.
It is important to install the hood at the proper
mounting height. Mounting the hood too low
could result in heat damage and fire hazard.
Mounting the hood too high will make it hard to
reach and reduce its performance and efficiency.
