NOTE: Distances over 24" are at the installer and user discretion .
1 ] Determine whether hood will discharge vertically (3¼" x 10" or 7" round),
or horizontally (3¼" x 10" only) .
2 ] Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outdoors .
3 ] Choose a straight, short duct run to allow the hood to perform most efficiently . Long duct
runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood . Use as few of them as
possible . When possible, use at least 2 foot straight runs before any turns . Larger ductwork
may be required for best performance with longer duct runs .
NOTE: To use 6" round ducting, install a 3¼" x 10" to 6" round transition (not included) . The
performances may be affected .
4 ] Install wall cap or roof cap (sold separately); ensure there is no leak in house insulation .
Connect metal ductwork to cap and work back towards the hood location . Use 2" metal foil
duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections .
