PLAN THE DUCTWORK
The KTV24XV slideout rangehood is designed
to offer wide flexibility of installations.
The rangehood can be ducted vertically
through a 6" round vent.
The unit can also be installed in a recirculating
configuration. The unit comes standard in the
top venting position.
FIGURES 1 shows vertical installations for
this unit.
FIGURE 2 shows recirculating installation.
The KTV24XV requires 6" round ductwork.
To ensure that the blower performs to its
highest possible capacity, ductwork should
be as short and straight as possilbe.
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if
ducted with the required minimum of 6" round
duct.
Calculate the length of the ductwork by
adding the equiva-lent feet in FIGURE A for
each piece of duct in the system An example
is given in FIGURE B.
For best results, use no more than three 90°
elbows. Make sure that there is a minimum of
24" of straight duct between elbows if more
than one is used. Do not install two elbows
together.
If you must elbow right away, do it as far away
from the hood's exhaust opening as possible.
