Exhaust Ducting Installation

  • The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction.
  • Keep exhaust ducting short and straight.
  • Do not reduce the size or restrict exhaust duct.
  • Keep bends in the exhaust duct to a minimum; the more bends the lower the extraction performance.
  • When using flexible ducting always install duct with helix pulled taut to minimise pressure loss.
  • Connect the extractor to the exhaust duct through a pipe of minimum diameter 120mm
  • Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of the rangehood.
  • Exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall cavity, unless the cavity is designed for that purpose. The exhaust from the rangehood must not be discharged into any heating flue, which may carry combustion products from other sources.
  • NOTE: Some installations may require the expandable/telescopic ducting to be cut to length. Cut with sharp tin snips or a fine-tooth hack saw blade, taking care not to distort or dent the exhaust cover. Where using expandable ducting, it’s important to have the ducting fully taught to maximise efficiency of the airflow.
  • Important notice regarding the extraction mode.
  • WARNING: Risk of poisoning from exhaust gases sucked back. Never operate the device in extraction mode simultaneously with an open flue appliance when there is not adequate airflow guaranteed.
  • Open duct combustion equipment (for example, gas, oil, wood or coal-fired heaters, tankless water heaters, water heaters) pulls combustion air from the room and runs it through an exhaust pipe or chimney to the outside. In the extraction mode, indoor air is removed from the kitchen and the adjacent rooms — without sufficient air intake this creates a vacuum. Toxic gases from the chimney or extraction duct can thereby be sucked back into the living spaces.
  • Always ensure that a sufficient supply of fresh air is guaranteed and that the air can circulate.
  • An air supply / extractor box alone does not ensure compliance with the limit value.
  • Safe operation is only possible when the negative pressure in the room where the appliance is located does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when the air required for combustion can flow through openings that are not closable, for example in doors, windows, in conjunction with an air supply / extractor box or through other technical measures. In any case, consult a qualified chimney sweep who can assess the entire ventilation of your house and propose appropriate measures for adequate ventilation.
  • If the rangehood is used exclusively in the recirculation mode, unrestricted operation is possible.
  • During transportation, protective packaging was used to protect the appliance against any damage. After unpacking, please dispose of all elements of packaging in a way that will not cause damage to the environment.

Disposal

  • This appliance is labeled in compliance with European directive 2012/19/EC for Waste Electrical and Electronic
  • Equipment (WEEE). By ensuring that this appliance is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent any possible damage to the environment and to human health, which might otherwise be caused if it were disposed of in the wrong way.
  • The symbol on the product indicates that it may not be treated as normal household waste. It should be taken to a collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic goods.

Installation Instructions

Installation Safety

  • WARNING: Before starting the installation, please refer to the Safety Information section.
  • Always switch the power off to the rangehood prior to beginning installation or maintenance.
  • The exterior surfaces can be easily damaged during installation. Wherever possible, protect the rangehood with a cardboard box, plastic, or a towel.
  • A power point must be located within 1.5m of the power cord exit from the rangehood, and it should be always accessible to allow isolation from power during cleaning or maintenance.
  • All ducting must comply with building codes and local statutory requirements.
  • If you are re-circulating the air as opposed to ducting, please ensure that the outlet grilles are not obstructed in any way, as this will affect the efficiency of the rangehood’s extraction.
  • Ensure that the rangehood is mounted in a level position, both horizontally and vertically. This is essential to ensure the rangehood operates correctly, preventing lopsided grease build-up at either end.
  • IMPORTANT: Never use silicone around your rangehood or flue pieces. Never install the rangehood or flue pieces into the plaster ceiling which prevents easy access to the rangehood for servicing requirements.
  • IMPORTANT: Before installing your rangehood, please record the details of your rangehood’s rating label
    (located within the rangehood, behind the aluminum grease filters) into the form on page 15. This will be helpful should you need to contact our service team in the future.

Electrical Connection

  • Always check that the method of installation complies with the standards of local building, gas and electrical authorities. Before connecting your rangehood to the mains supply, ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate inside the rangehood.
  • Always wear proper protection during installation and maintenance. All work must be carried out by a qualified technician or similarly qualified person.
  • IMPORTANT: Failure to install the appliance correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims.

Ducted Installation

  • For maximum performance, we recommend installing with rigid or semi-rigid cylindrical ducting. Use cable ties or suitable duct tape to secure the flexible pipe or ducting to the rangehood duct outlet.
  • WARNING: All ducting must be fire retardant.
  • Depending on your situation, there are multiple options for ducting your rangehood, as follows:
  • Straight up through your tiled or metal roof, using a roof cowl (not supplied with the rangehood).
  • Into your ceiling cavity (where compliant with local and national building regulations/codes. It may be necessary to seek approval from the relevant authority or building inspector where necessary.
  • Into your ceiling cavity, and then vented through to the atmosphere through your eaves, using no more than 2 × 90° bends within the ducting run.
  • Through your wall.
  • IMPORTANT: Ducting can have a major effect on your rangehood’s performance. The following tips outline how to correctly duct your range hood.
  • Always use the correct size ducting. This range hood is designed to use Ø 150mm ducting to achieve optimum airflow performance and minimal noise.
  • Always duct to the outside atmosphere, unless your local building codes and regulations permit otherwise.
  • When using flexible ducting, always install the ducting pulled taut to minimize pressure loss, removing any excess ducting.
  • Sôlt recommends you keep your total length of ducting to the shortest length possible. Where possible, avoid using 90° bends, and in their place use multiple 45°bends. Ensure there are no kinks in your ducting.

Recirculating Installation

  • Sôlt recommends ducting your rangehood whenever possible for maximum performance. However, if ducting
    is not possible, this rangehood can be operated in recirculating mode. You will need to purchase the relevant Carbon Filter accessory, available for purchase from our After Sales Service Team.

  • If you do not have an outlet to the outside, an exhaust pipe is not required. The rest of the installation method is the same as Ducted Installation.

Positioning the Rangehood

  • NOTE: When the rangehood and appliance supplied with energy other than electricity are simultaneously in operation, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 × 10-5 Bar).
  • IMPORTANT: The height of the rangehood underside must be a minimum of 650mm to a maximum of 850mm from the top of your cooktop surface (for gas cooktops this is the top of the gas burner).
  • If the installation instructions for your cooktop specify a greater distance than the minimum, then that shall be the minimum height for installation.

Installation Guide

  • IMPORTANT: Do not connect the power cable until the installation is complete! Sôlt recommends installing in a team of at least two people to avoid injuries.
  • The typical installation method for your Sôlt undermount rangehood is into a purpose built overhead/wall cabinet.
  1. Carefully remove the grease filter/s (C), in the interim placing them onto a soft towel to avoid scratches.
  2. Using a jigsaw, carefully create the required cut-out for your undermount rangehood, as per the measurement dimensions in the table on page 13. Always ensure the cut-out is at least 35mm from the cabinet edge.
  3. Drill a hole into the cabinet, which will later serve as a guide for the power cord.
  4. Remove the screws on the frame (B) and unscrew the two globes. Ensure that the two clips on both sides of the rangehood are suitable for the thickness of the area where the rangehood is installed. If this is not the case, adjust the clips accordingly using the screws.
  5. Insert the rangehood into the cabinet, then pass the power cord through the opening drilled in step 3.
  6. Slide the rangehood completely into the opening in the wall cabinet. If you want to connect the rangehood to a pipe leading outwards, attach the connecting pipe at the top of the round air outlet of the rangehood.
  7. While one person is holding the rangehood, the other person should tighten the screws through the holes in the hood frame (A).
  8. Screw the fan frame (B) back into place and tighten the two globes, followed by reinstalling the grease filter/s.
