PART 1: PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

CAUTION:

  1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapours.
  2. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, the hood must be exposed to outside air. Never exhaust into a wall, an attic or a concealed area in the building. This can create a potential hazard.
  3. Consult a licensed ventilation contractor or a qualified technician for the proper installation of exhaust ducting.
  4. Locate the cooking area for minimum cross drafts—away from doors and windows, when possible.
  5. Ducts must be of adequate size and duct runs should be as short as possible. Where turns are necessary, keep the turning radius as large and as smooth as possible.
  6. The ducting must be airtight. Use a minimum of 2 sheet metal screws at every duct joint. Then, seal the duct joints with high quality duct tape.
  7. Only use ductwork constructed of materials deemed acceptable by state, municipal and local codes.
  8. Plan the installation so that all minimum clearances are met or exceeded. Dimensions shown provide minimum clearances, unless otherwise specified.

WARNING:
Hoods installed in custom canopies constructed of combustible materials should be installed with the combustible material structure at 36” above the cooking surface. Hoods installed in custom canopies constructed of non-combustible materials, should be installed with the non-combustible material structure at 36” above the cooking surface. Follow all instructions regarding minimum safe clearances and installation location. Failure to do so may result in a safety hazard orfire. To reduce the risk of fire use only metal ductwork.

PART 2: ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

WARNING:
Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before proceeding. Verify that the power supply matches the ratings found on the appliance data label before proceeding. The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all times when electrical power is applied. Do not ground the appliance with the neutral (white) house supply wire. A separate ground wire must be utilized. Failure to complete electrical connections properly may result in damaged or non- functional systems. Follow instructions carefully to ensure proper installation.

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that a qualified person performs the electrical connection of this appliance. The electrical installation, including minimum supply wire size, must comply with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 (or latest revision) and local codes and ordinances.

PART 3: DIRECTION OF VENT AND SECURING THE HOOD

MOUNTING HOLES:
Because the TRADE-WIND® P7200 Series BBQ Hood was designed for all applications, no mounting holes have been predrilled. This allows for custom applications for mounting. The hood should be attached to the framing through the top and back, whenever possible. Remove the filters. Mark and drill screw holes through the hood as required. Secure the hood by driving screws (provided by others) through the screw holes.

NOTE: DRILLING THROUGH STAINLESS STEEL REQUIRES TITANIUM DRILL BITS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DRILL THROUGH THE UL LABEL OR INTO THE HOOD’S ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

Care and Maintenance
Regularly clean the ventilating fans to prevent grease accumulation. Use proper pan sizes and always cook with appropriate cookware for surface elements.

CAUTION: The edges of the stainless steel are extremely sharp. To ensure safety, wear gloves when handling all parts.

WARNING: Do NOT operate the blower/ventilator system without the filters in place, or with dirty, grease-laden filters.

FILTER REMOVAL:
Each filter has two aluminium cylindrical knobs, one towards the rear and one towards the front. The front & rear knobs are only for grasping and are permanently connected to the filter. To remove the filter, grasp the front & rear knobs, and slide the filter towards the centre bar of the hood until the other end of the filter drops down. Grasping the filter, remove it from the hood by now pulling it out of the centre bar.

OPERATING CONTROLS:
Always activate the ventilator when using cooking appliances. Activate the ventilator a few minutes before starting to cook to establish an airflow pattern within the room. Adjust the fan speed as needed. Adjust the dimmable halogen lights as desired.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS:
Do not operate the blower at a speed higher than necessary to remove the cooking exhaust. Turn off the unit once the smoke and cooking odours have been eliminated. Clean filters and grease-laden surfaces often to improve efficiency.

CARE AND CLEANING:

Proper cleaning is necessary to maintain performance and appearance, while also ensuring safe operation. The frequency of cleaning should be adjusted according to the type and amount of cooking. The best results will be achieved by cleaning soil components as soon as possible. Filters must be cleaned regularly. We recommend washing filters by placing them in the bottom rack of a dishwasher. Locate the holes on the sides of the filter. Put the filter in the dishwasher with holes facing up, so the detergent can enter filters. Dry the filters completely before usingagain. Rinse and dry with a soft lint-free cloth. Always wipe stainless steel surfaces with the grain. Never wipe across the grain. After cleaning, reinstall the filters carefully. Most common scrubber-type pads will scratch the hood.

CAUTION:
If a commercially available stainless steel cleaner is used, it is important to read the labels for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a corrosive substance, DO NOT USE. Follow Polish manufacturer’s instructions.

HALOGEN LIGHT BULBS:
Hoods are designed for halogen light bulbs. They can be purchased at most home and/or grocery stores.

Safety Precautions
Avoid leaving surface units unattended at high settings to prevent grease fires. Always turn the hood on when cooking at high heat or flambeing food. In case of a grease fire, smother flames with a lid or metal tray and turn off the burner. Do not use water to extinguish a grease fire.

ADDENDUM TO INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: Problems caused by the improper installations are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
IMPORTANT: Undersized and improperly installed duct pipe and/or other ventilation components will cause excessive static pressure (air resistance), that may result in rattling, vibration and air buffeting noises, as well as inadequate ventilation.

  • BUILDING CODES
    BBQ Hood Ventilators should be installed by qualified technicians familiar with state and local building codes.

  • DUCT PIPE & FITTINGS (ELBOWS, TRANSITIONS, ROOF & WALL CAPS)

    • Use round or rectangular rigid metal duct only. Where possible, use round duct as it creates the least amount of static pressure. DO NOT USE FLEX DUCT.
    • All duct sections and fittings (EXCEPT DAMPERS, per Section 4), should overlap and be connected with at least 3 – 4 equally spaced screws and wrapped tightly with 2 – 3 layers of Aluminum Foil Metal Duct Tape. This type of duct tape is more durable than traditional cloth duct tape. DO NOT USE BUTT JOINTS.
    • For best air flow, elbows and pipe size transition fittings should not be directly connected to one another. Where possible, always include at least 15 inches of straight pipe between fittings.
  • DUCT PIPE & FITTING SIZES (See Duct Sizing Chart and Area Calculations section for more details)

    • IMPORTANT: No portion of any length of duct pipe or fitting should be smaller than the discharge port of the ventilator. This is very important because any type of restriction anywhere in the ventilation system will cause increased static pressure (air resistance), that may result in rattling, vibration and air buffeting noises, as well as inadequate ventilation.

DUCT RUNS – LENGTH

  • Configure the ventilation duct run to be as short and as direct to the outside as possible. Minimize the number of elbows and transition fittings used. Complex or long runs should be reviewed by a qualified installer.
  • No portion of the ducting should be run so that the exhaust air flows downward. Since exhaust heat rises, forcing the air to flow downward will cause increased static pressure. As previously mentioned, improperly installed duct pipe will cause excessive static pressure (air resistance), that may result in rattling, vibration and air buffeting noises, as well as inadequate ventilation.
  • Duct runs for 1200 CFM ventilator models should not exceed 35 linear feet with two 90-degree elbows and two 45- degree elbows, a damper and a roof or wall cap. Longer runs or additional elbows will result in decreased ventilation performance. Each 90-degree elbow is the equivalent of 6 linear feet of duct pipe; each 45-degree elbow is equivalent to 3 linear feet of duct pipe.
  • Always run ventilator ducts to the outdoors. DO NOT terminate a duct into an attic, basement, garage, crawl space under a house, a chimney, other ducting or an enclosed room.
DAMPERS

IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF DAMPER IN A BBQ HOOD APPLICATION.
In ventilation systems utilizing a roof cap or wall cap with a built-in damper, remove it. Dampers are unnecessary and will cause increased static pressure (air resistance), that may result in rattling, vibration and air buffeting noises, as well as inadequate ventilation.

ROOF CAPS & WALL CAPS

The roof cap or wall cap is the termination point of the venting system that allows the exhaust air to exit to the outdoors. All sections of this fitting must have an equal or greater air path area than the ventilator’s discharge port. If any section of the roof cap or wall cap is smaller than the ventilator’s discharge port, the entire ventilation system will lose efficiency and the restriction will cause increased static pressure and decrease performance.

IMPORTANT: Even though the intake side of the roof cap or wall cap may be properly sized, roof caps or wall caps with built-in dampers must be made so that when the damper is fully open, the actual open area of the final air path is equal to or greater than the discharge port of the ventilator. Any undersized portion of a roof cap or wall cap will cause excessive static pressure that may result in rattling, vibration and air buffeting noises, as well as inadequate ventilation. Do not use “goose-neck style” caps as they significantly restrict natural, heated air-flow. Do Not use caps with dampers for BBQ Hoods.

ROOF CAP DRAWING
For higher profile roof tile, you may need a taller roof cap. See recommended dimensions below – Minimizes static pressure and maximizes air flow to ensure optimum performance of your TRADE-WIND® product.TRADE-WIND-P7248ISL-Range-
Hoods-Cooking-Appliance-fig-7

ATTACHING DUCT TO HOUSE FRAMEWORK
The ventilation system should be attached to the framework in such a manner that the weight of the duct and fittings is supported with no stress on the duct joints, fittings or on the ventilator. All ducting should be attached so as to avoid any possible duct vibration from being transferred to the house’s framework.
