IMPORTANT: Observe all governing building codes and city ordinances.
A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC, 15-amp outlet is needed (fused electrical circuit is required)
It is the customer's responsibility:
1. To contact a qualified electrical installer. To assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA
70 — latest edition*, or CSA Standards C22. 1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22. 2 No. 0-M91 - latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

6. TOOLS YOU WILL NEED

Level
Powered Screwdriver
Aluminum Tape
IMPORTANT:

NEVER exhaust air or terminate ductwork into crawl spaces, between walls, ceiling, attics or garages. All exhaust
must be ducted to the outside.

Hood mounted too low could result in heat and/or fire hazard. Hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will lose
its performance and efficiency.

Use metal ductwork only.

DO NOT use plastic ventilation.

DO NOT use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.

Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws. Tape all joints with aluminum tape.

Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof openings around the cap.

The ventilation system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a damper, you may opt out from usage of your
range hood supplied damper (for some models only).
For the most efficient & quiet operation:

A distance of 26" to 30" is recommended between stove top and the bottom of range hood.

It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof with a minimum of a 6" or larger vent work.

ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns. If a long duct run is required, increase duct size from
6" to 7" or 8". If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer. Reducing duct size will
restrict/decrease airflow.

The size of the vent should be uniform.

Use no more than three 90° elbows.

Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
