greasefilters and expels it to the outside
through an outlet pipe.
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire, the
use of metal ductwork is preferred. Do
not use flammable
exhaust air.
Decide where the ductwork will run
between the hood and the outside.
A straight, short duct run will allow the
hood to perform most efficiently.
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.
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for
exhausting fumes from
other fuels Regulations concerning the discharge of air
have to be followed. Check with the local authority and
building codes for exhaust ducting requirements.
