INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Venting options
Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the
discharge of exhaust air are fulfilled.
The rangehood can be installed to operate with the exhaust air ducted externally
from the kitchen, or installed to operate in recirculation mode with the exhaust air
recirculating within the kitchen.
Ducted externally
For an externally ducted installation it is recommended that 150 mm diameter, rigid or
semi-rigid ducting is used. This will require a 160 mm (min) round hole in the ceiling or
wall. Care should be taken to position the hole correctly.
For optimal efficiency use the shortest and straightest duct route possible and use rigid
or semi-rigid ducting for reduced noise and increased airflow. Flexible metal ducting
should only be used as a last resort (ie in difficult installations) and if used ensure that it
is straight and smooth and extended as much as possible.
Recirculation mode
To enable the product to operate with the air recirculating within the kitchen, please
purchase a recirculation diverter and carbon filters (refer to the 'Parts and accessories'
section). The recirculation diverter is installed after a short length of ducting and is
required to channel the air out the side vents at the top of the chimney and the carbon
filters are required to remove odours.
Note: a ducting hole is not required in the wall or ceiling if the rangehood is
installed to operate in recirculation mode.
