• An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and insects from entering the home.
• Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (30.5 cm) from the ground or any object that may be in
the path of the exhaust (such as flowers, rocks or bushes, snow line, etc.).
• Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect
indoors, which may result in:
II Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper,
carpets, etc.
II Housecleaning problems and health problems.
