VENTING REQUIREMENTS
· Vent system must terminate to the outside (roof or side wall). · DO NOT
terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area. · DO NOT use 4″
or 5″ laundry-type wall caps. Use a 6″ or larger Wall/Roof Cap. · Use
metal/aluminum vent only. We recommend using Rigid instead of Flex duct. ·
· It is recommended that the range hood be vented with a 6″ or bigger round
metal/aluminum vent work.
· The size of the vent should be uniform. · Use no more than two 90° elbows. ·
Make sure there is a minimum of 24″ (61 cm) of straight vent between the
elbows if more
than one elbow is used. · DO NOT install two elbows together. · The length of
vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide · Use
aluminum foil tape to seal all joints in the vent system. · Use caulking to
seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap. · Use 45 degree elbows
instead of 90 degree elbows when possible.
IMPORTANT: · A minimum of a 6″ round duct (standard for this range hood) must
be used to maintain ·
connecting to provided duct. · Please use Duct Run Calculation below to
compute total available duct run when using
elbows, transitions and caps. · ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or
transitions and turns in the duct run. If a
long duct run is required, increase the duct size from 6″ to 8″. If a reducer
is used, install a
· If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away from opening and
as far apart, between 2, as possible. Minimum Duct Size:
· Round – 6″ minimum

CALCULATING VENT SYSTEM LENGTH
Duct Run Calculation:
Side wall cap with damper Roof cap
Duct Run Calcuation example:
One roof cap, two 90º elbows, and one 45º elbow used:
7ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 30ft used.
The above vent 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.

standard outlet (please refer the product label for the suitable voltage of
this unit) and turn on the range hood. Verify all operations of the range hood
by referring to Range Hood verify the existence of all supplied parts. ·
Carefully remove the white or blue plastic protective coat from the range
hood. Preparations: NOTE: To avoid damage to your hood, prevent debris from
entering the vent opening. · Decide the location of the venting pipe from the
hood to the outside. Refer to Venting Methods. · · Try to avoid as many
transitions, elbows, and long run as possible. This may reduce the performance
of the hood. · Using 45 degee elbows is better than using 90 degree elbows. ·
· Use aluminum tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
THE HOOD MUST BE TESTED BEFORE INSTALLATION.
PLEASE TEST THE RANGE HOOD FOR PROPER OPERATION BEFORE BOXING IT, OR RECESSING
IT INTO THE CEILING.
DO NOT CLOSE THE BOX AROUND THE HOOD UNTIL THE TEST HAS BEEN PERFORMED.
