ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning

• This hood is designed to be vented vertically through the ceiling with a 10″ round duct or, horizontally through a wall with an 8″x12″ duct transition and 12″ round duct.
• Use metal ductwork only. Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.
• To maximize the ventilation performance of the vent system:
  1. Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows.
  2. Maintain a constant duct size.
  3. Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any leaks.

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduces performance.

• Maximum equivalent duct length for 100 CFM: 150 foot for vent hoods.
• Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the exterior opening. Purchase the wall or roof cap and any transition and length of duct needed in advance.
• When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. 10″ round duct universal make up air kit can be purchased locally.

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or the wall.
