DUCT PLANNING
•
The ventilation hood is equipped for 8" round ducts. This hood can
be ventilated vertically through the top cabinet or ceiling. A duct
transition piece is provided for vertical exhaust. You can use elbows
(sold separately) to ventilate horizontally through the rear wall.
•
Determine the exact position of the hood.
•
Plan the route to vent the ventilation duct to the outside.
•
Use the shortest and straightest path possible. For satisfactory
performance, the length of the duct should not exceed 12.5 feet of
equivalent length for all duct configurations.
•
Use only metal ducts.
