Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems
when using 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.
Venting Methods
This island hood is factory set for venting through the roof.
A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation
(not included). The hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent
creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly
reduce performance.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall.
To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.
For Non-Vented (Recirculating) Installations
If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the
outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating)
version, fitting a charcoal filter and the deflector. Fumes and
vapors are recycled through the top grille. To order, see the
"Assistance or Service" section.

Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, add the
equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.
Vent Piece
6" (15.2 cm) Round
45° elbow
2.5 ft (0.8 m)
90° elbow
5 ft (1.5 m)
Maximum equivalent vent length is 35 ft (10.7 m).
