(For use on adequately wired 120V, dedicated circuit
having 2-wire service with a separate ground wire.
Appliance must be grounded for safe operation.)
•
Amps @ 120 Volts = 4.16 Amps
•
Always consult local and national electric codes.

Ducted Option Specifications
•
For outside ventilation.
•
Exhaust Duct Required – 8" round
•
For most efficient airflow exhaust, use a straight run or as
few elbows as possible.
•
Use metallic flex ducting only to connect rigid duct directly
to transitions (if allowed by code).
•
Thermal breaks such as short section of nonmetallic duct,
should be used in areas of extreme cold.
•
Cold weather installations should have additional backdraft
damper installed.
•
Refer to installation instructions on web for detailed exhaust
duct preparation and converting vent blower system for
recirculating inside.
Pre-Installation Calculations
•
Select hood preference height (P) that is comfortable
for user (24" - 30" minimum allowed, NOT more than
36" recommended).
•
Calculate hood height (H) for installation (H = K-C-P).
•
Confirm that (H) is within minimum to maximum range for
hood. If not, adjust installation.
•
Calculate chimney structure height (S). Use formulas,
check dimensions of hood. Save calculation for use later
in installation.
