ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
• A 120 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required.
VENTING REQUIREMENTS
This canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.
A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The
hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and
air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a
wall, a 90° elbow is needed.
Rear discharge
A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.
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.
