HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION
The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:
•
Keep exhaust duct short and straight
•
Do not reduce the size or restrict the exhaust duct
•
When using the flexible duct always install the duct pulled taut to minimize pressure loss
•
Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise
levels of the range hood.
•
Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
•
Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is
being used for any other appliance, such as warmer tube, gas tube, hot wind tube.
•
The angle of the bend of the ventilation pipe should not be less than 120º; you must direct
the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial point and should
be led to an outer wall.
•
After the installation, make sure that the cooker hood is level to avoid grease collection at on
end.
Ensure the exhaust ducting selected for installation complies with relevant standards
and is fire retardant.
