VENTING REQUIREMENTS

• Duct system must terminate to the outside (roof or side wall).
• DO NOT terminate the duct system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
• Use metal/aluminum duct only. Rigid metal/aluminum vent is recommended.
• DO NOT use plastic duct.
• Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow.
• Calculate the following figures before installation:
  1. Distance from the floor to the ceiling.
  2. Distance from countertop/stove to range hood (recommend* 24” to 30”).
  3. Height of hood and duct cover.

For the most efficient & quiet operation:

• A distance of 24” 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 through 6” or bigger round metal/aluminum duct work.
• The size of the duct should be uniform.
• Use no more than three 90° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of straight duct between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
• DO NOT install two elbows together.
• The length of duct system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
• The duct system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a damper, DO NOT use damper (if supplied) on top of the range hood.
• Use aluminum foil tape to seal all joints in the duct system. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap. USE 6” ROUND ROOF OR RECTANGULAR WALL VENT CAP.

IMPORTANT:

• Use a rectangular to circular transition to connect range hood to ducting system.
• A minimum of a 6” round duct (standard for this range hood) must be used to maintain maximum airflow efficiency.
• Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airflow when connecting to provided duct.
• Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitionsand caps.
• ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns in the duct run. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer. Reducing the duct size will restrict airflow and decrease efficiency.
• If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away from opening and as far apart, between 2, as possible.
• Minimum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no less than 24-inch*.
• Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no higher than 30-inch*.
• It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance and efficiency.
• If available, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended hood mounting height above range.

Minimum Duct Size:

• Round – 6”. Use Aluminimum foil tape to properly seal.

CALCULATING DUCT SYSTEM LENGTH

To calculate the length of the duct system you require, subtract the equivalent feet for each “Duct piece” (Table Below) used in the system from the “Recommended maximum run” (Table Below). The longest duct run that is acceptable (if completely straight) is 50 feet. The number of duct pieces (elbow, transition, etc.) installed in your duct run will determine the maximum length the duct run can be. Please refer to the example below:
Duct Run Calcuation example:

• One roof cap, two 90º elbows, and one 45º elbow used: 7ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 30ft used.
• The above duct pieces used are equivalent to 30ft of a straight duct run. Subtract 30ft from the allowable 50ft. The remaining distance of 20ft is the longest that the straight ducting (in addition to the vent pieces) can be.

Duct Run Calculation:|
---|---
Recommended maximum r| un
6” round duct| 50 ft
 |
Duct piece deduction|
Each 90º elbow used| 9  ft
Each 45º elbow used| 5 ft
Each round to rectangle transition used| 7  ft
Side wall cap with damper| 7 ft
Roof cap| 7  ft

WIRING DIAGRAM

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. If the range hood or lights do not operate after installation:

   • Check if the range hood has been plugged in, make sure that all power has been turned back ON, fused not blown and all electrical wiring are properly connected.
   • Swap out light assembly to working ones to determine whether it is caused by defective bulbs. See Replacing the light bulbs page.

2. The range hood vibrates when the blower is on:

   • The range hood might not have been secured properly on to the ceiling or wall.
   • The impeller may be out of balance.

3. The blower or fan seems weak:
   Duct is too small. Range hood WILL NOT function efficiently with insufficient duct size. For example: Connecting this hood to 4” or 5” duct will reduce the suction and create extra noise and vibrations. Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit is not installed correctly or opening properly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might also cause restriction to the air flow.

4. The lights work but the blower is not spinning at all, is stuck or is rattling.
   The blower might be jammed or scraping the bottom due to shipping damage. Please contact us immediately.

5. The hood is not venting out properly: • Make sure the distance between the stove top and the bottom of the hood is within 24” and 30” in distance. Due to different ceiling height configurations, recommended height may not be applicable.

   • Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct work. Check if all joints are properly connected, sealed, and taped.
   • Make sure the power is on high speed for heavy cooking.
   • The duct size must be 6”, or larger. Please make sure there are NO reducers or plenums in the duct work.
   • Refer to Duct Venting in the Venting Methods page for illustrative examples.

DO’S AND DON’TS FOR DUCT VENTING

• Avoid the use of sharp elbows. Use 45 degrees instead, if possible.
• DO NOT use REDUCERS. Keep the size of the duct the same, as per the manual. A reducer will reduce the CFM of the hood and increase the noise.
• DO NOT use plenum boxes. Boxes create turbulence and make the hood inefficient. Use a smooth elbow to guide the air outdoors.

USE AND CARE INFORMATION

Operations:

• Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before operating the appliance. Save these instructions for future reference.
• Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch on to hair, fingers and loose clothing.
• NEVER dispose cigarette ashes, ignitable substances, or any foreign objects into blowers.
• NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily overheat and catch fire. The risk of self combustion is higher when the oil has been used several times.
• NEVER cook on “open” flames under the range hood. Check deep-fryers during use: Superheated oil may be flammable.

Cleaning:

• The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased inflammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue build-up at all times to prevent possible fires.
• Filters must be cleaned periodically and free from accumulation of cooking residue. Old and worn filters must be replaced immediately.
• DO NOT operate blowers when filters are removed. Never disassemble parts to clean without proper instructions. Disassembly is recommended to be performed by qualified personnel only. Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before proceeding.

MAINTENANCE

SAFETY WARNING
Never put your hand into area housing the fan while the fan is operating! For optimal operation, clean range hood and all baffle/spacer/filter/grease tunnel/oil container regularly. Regular care will help preserve the appearance of the range hood.

Cleaning Exterior surfaces:

• Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth. Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. Comet Power Scruv®, EZ-Off® oven cleaner), or steel wool/scoring pads, which will scratch and damage the stainless steel surface. For heavier oil use liquid degrease such as “Forumla 409®” or “Fantastic®” brand cleaner.
• If the hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions of the stainless steel cleaner. CAUTION: Do not leave on too long as this may cause damage to the hood finish. Use a soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use a dry soft towel to dry the hood.
• After cleaning, you may use non abrasive stainless steel polish such as 3M® or ZEP®, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly, a with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
• DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
• DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.
• DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Cleaning Stainless Steel Filters:
IMPORTANT: Drain oil from grease tunnel and filters before oil and residue overflow!

• The stainless steel filters are intended to filter out residue and grease from cooking. It need not be replaced on a regular basis, but are required to be kept clean.
• Filters should be cleaned after every 30 hours of use.
• Stainless steel filters are dishwasher safe. Spray “Formula 409®” or equivalent degreasing detergent and leave to soak if very dirty. Dry the filters and re-install before using the hood. Replacing Filters:
