Product Dimensions

Vented Installations

Installation Dimensions

NOTE:
The range hood chimneys are adjustable and designed to meet varying ceiling or soffit heights depending on the distance “X” between the bottom of the range hood and the cooking surface. For higher ceilings, an Extension Kit Part Number W10352733 is available from your dealer or an authorized parts distributor. The chimney extension replaces the upper chimney shipped with the range hood.

IMPORTANT:

• Minimum distance “X”: 24″ (61 cm) from electric cooking surfaces
• Minimum distance “X”: 30″ (76.2 cm) from gas cooking surfaces
• The chimneys can be adjusted for ceilings between 8′ 23/8″ (2.5 m) and 8′ 105/16″ (2.7 m) when mounted at 30″ (76.2 cm) height over a gas cooking surface.
• The chimneys can be adjusted for ceilings between 7′ 83/8″ (2.4 m) and 8′ 45/16″ (2.55 m) when mounted at 24″ (61 cm) height over electric cooking surface.

Venting Requirements

• Vent system must terminate to the outdoors.
• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• Do not use 4″ (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
• Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.
• The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

For the most efficient and quiet operation:

• Use no more than three 90° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24″ (61.0 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
• Do not install 2 elbows together.
• Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
• The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range hood.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
• The size of the vent should be uniform.

Cold weather installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.

Makeup air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Venting Methods

Typical Internal Blower Motor System Venting Installations
A 10″ (25.4 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The range hood exhaust opening is 10″ (25.4 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 the wall, a 90º elbow is needed.

Typical In-line Blower Motor System Venting Installations

• A. 10″ (25.4 cm) round vent
• B. Mount on top of ceiling joists.
• C. Roof caps
• D. Plywood (optional on some installations)
• E. Mount on underside of roof rafters.
• F. Mount from cross-members tied to trusses.
• G. Duct horizontal; mount to cross-members tied to trusses.
• H. Wall cap

Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

The maximum equivalent vent lengths are: 10″ (25.4 cm) round vent – 60 ft (18.3 m)

Example vent system

The following example falls within the maximum recommended vent length.

• 1 – 90° elbow = 5.0 ft (1.5 m)
• 1 – wall cap = 0.0 ft (0.0 m)
• 8 ft (2.4 m) straight = 8.0 ft (2.4 m)
• Length of system = 13.0 ft (3.9 m)

Electrical Requirements
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Ensure 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.

NOTE: To get the most efficient use from your new range hood, read the “Range Hood Use” section.

RANGE HOOD USE

The range hood is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors and odors from the cooktop area. For best results, start the range hood before cooking and allow it to operate several minutes after the cooking is complete to clear all smoke and odors from the kitchen.

The range hood controls are located on the underside of the range hood.

• A. Light control
• B. Blower control
• C. Fan speed control

Range Hood Controls

Operating the light

1. Move the light switch to the “1” position to turn range hood light to night light setting.
2. Move the light switch to the “2” position to turn range hood light to full light setting.
3. Move the light switch to the “Off” position to turn range hood light OFF.

IMPORTANT:
Flicker and visual fluctuation can be present every time the lamp switch is activated. The duration of the flicker will depend on the manner and velocity that the light switch changes position.

Operating the fan

1. Move the fan switch to the “On” position to turn the fan ON. The fan will begin operating at the speed set on the fan speed switch.
2. Move the fan switch to the “Off” position to turn the fan OFF.

Auto On Fan
The range hood is equipped with a sensor to automatically turn on the fan when excessive heat is detected in the control area. When the fan switch is in the “Off” position, this sensor will turn the fan to high speed when necessary. When the heat decreases, the fan will turn off. When the fan switch is in the “On” position, the heat sensor is not active and the range hood functions normally.

Adjusting the fan
The fan has 3 speed controls. Move the fan speed switch to “1” position for low speed, “2” position for medium speed, or “3” position for high speed.

Thermal Protector
The range hood is equipped with a thermal protector to avoid overheating conditions. If the range hood shuts off while in use, move fan slider switch to Off to turn off the range hood. Wait approximately 60 minutes, then move slider to On to restart the range hood.

Operating the heat lamp

• The heat lamps are designed to keep food warm prior to serving. The cooktop surface is too far away from the heat lamp to be used as a shelf.
• For best results, install a metal shelf to hold the food closer to the lamps. The optimum distance between the shelf and the range hood is 12″ (30.5 cm) to 15″ (38.1 cm).

For best performance, food should be placed directly under the heat lamps, not between them. You may need to adjust your food placement to match your needs.

1. Install heat lamp bulbs into heat lamp sockets.
   NOTE:
   Heat lamp bulbs should be rated to a maximum of 175 W each. For best performance, 175 W maximum, PAR38 type, red heat lamp bulbs are recommended. Bulb performance varies. Lower wattage and clear bulbs decrease the performance.
   WARNING
   Food Poisoning Hazard
   

   • Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.
   • Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

2. To turn on the heat lamps, move the switch to the “I” position. To turn off the heat lamps, move the switch to the “O” position.
