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.

A. Roof cap
B. 6" (15.2 cm) round vent
NOTE: Wall venting can be an option for 2-story homes.
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
5.0 ft
(1.5 m)
Maximum equivalent vent length is 35 ft (10.7 m).
Example Vent System
90 elbow
6 ft (1.8 m)
2 ft
(0.6 m)
The following example falls within the maximum vent length of
35 ft (10.7 m).
1 - 90° elbow
1 - wall cap
8 ft (2.4 m) straight
System length

A. Deflector
B. 6" (15.2 cm) round vent
Wall cap
= 5 ft (1.5 m)
= 0 ft (0.0 m)
= 8 ft (2.4 m)
= 13 ft (3.9 m)
