Install The Ductwork; Prepare The Hood; Measure The Installation - Broan EIT1366SS Instructions Manual

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK

(Ducted Hoods Only)
1. Decide where
the ductwork will
run between the
hood and the
outside.
2. A straight, short
duct run will
allow the hood
DECORATIVE
to perform most
efficiently.
3. Long duct
runs, elbows
and transitions
will reduce the
performance of
the hood. Use
as few of them
as possible.
Larger ducting
may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.
4. Install wall cap or roof cap. Connect round metal ductwork
to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use duct
tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.

MEASURE THE INSTALLATION

The minimum hood distance above cooktop MUST NOT BE
LESS than 26".
A maximum of 36" above cooktop is highly recommended for
best capture of cooking impurities.
Distances over 36" are at the installer and user's discretion;
providing that the ceiling height permits.
NOTE:
On 7-ft 8-in. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 26", Maximum 30" (for ducted discharge).
Minimum 26", Maximum 26" (for non-ducted discharge).
On 8-ft. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 26", Maximum 34" (for ducted discharge).
Minimum 26", Maximum 30" (for non-ducted discharge).
On 9-ft. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 26", Maximum 36" (for both ducted and non-ducted
discharge).
On 10-ft. ceilings (with Flue Extension FXNEIT1SS)
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 26", Maximum 36" (for both ducted and non-ducted
discharge).
