Venting Requirements Height & Clearance
Vent system must terminate to the outside •
(roof or side wall).
DO NOT terminate the vent system in an at-•
tic or other enclosed area.
DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall •
caps.
Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/•
aluminum vent is recommended.
DO NOT use plastic vent.•
Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper •
airow.
Calculate the following gures before instal-•
lation:
Distance from the oor to the ceiling.1.
Distance between the oor to the coun-2.
tertop/stove (recommend* 28” to 31”).
Distance between the countertop/stove 3.
to the range hood.
Height of hood and duct cover.4.
For the most efcient & quiet operation:
A distance of 28” to 31” 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”
(15.2 cm) or bigger round metal/aluminum
vent work.
The size of the vent should be uniform.•
Use no more than three 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 efcient performance.
The vent 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 silver tape or duct tape to seal all joints •
in the vent system.
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof •
opening around the cap.
Maximum* ceiling clearance
110” at 31” hood mounting

IMPORTANT:
A minimum of 6” round (standard for this range hood) or 3-1/4 x 10” rectangular duct (purchased separately) •
must be used to maintain maximum airow efciency.
Flexible 6” round duct provided for convenience, always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to •
maximize airow when connecting to provided duct.
Please use • Duct Run Calculation below to compute the total available duct run when using elbows, transitions
and caps.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns. If long duct run is required, increase •
duct size from 6” to 7” or 8”. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer. Reducing duct size will restrict airow and decrease airow, thus reduce duct size as far away from opening as possible.
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 28-inch*.•
Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no higher than 31-inch*.•
It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat •
damage and re hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance
and efciency.
If available, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended hood •
mounting height above range.
* Due to different ceiling height congurations, recommended height may not be applicable.
Minimum Duct Size:
Round - 6” minimum•
Rectangular - 3-1/4 x 10” minimum (requires a 6” to 3-1/4x10” adaptor, not supplied)•
Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, deduct the equivalent feet for each vent piece used in the system
from the recommended maximum duct run.
Duct Run Calculation:
Recommended maximum run
6” or 3-1/4 x 10” duct 50 ft
Vent piece deduction
Each 90º elbow used 9 ft
Each 45º elbow used 5 ft
Each 6” to 3/14 x 10” transition used 7 ft
Side wall cap with damper 0 ft
Roof cap 0 ft
Duct Run Calcuation example:
One roof cap, two 90º elbow, and one 45º elbow used:
0ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 23ft used.
Deduct 23ft from 50ft, 27ft maximum available for
straight duct run.
Page 6
Venting Methods
This range hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall. For non-vented (re-circulating) installa-•
tions, see Recirculating (Non-Vented) Kit on Page 11.
Vent work can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.•
IMPORTANT:
NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages. •
All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.
Use metal/aluminum duct work only. •
Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certied Silver Tape or Duct Tape.•
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.•
Option 1:
Horizontal wall venting
Side wall cap
Vertical roof venting
Option 2:
Roof cap
Ductless Conversion
Ductless conversion is intended for applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be installed. •
When converted, the hood functions as a purifying hood rather than an exhaust hood. Fumes and exhaust
from cooking is drawn and ltered by a set of charcoal lters. The air is then puried and re-circulated back
within the home.
We recommend to ALWAYS exhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing new duct •
work, if possible. Only when the exhaust option is not possible should you recourse to converting the hood
into a purifying unit.
When converted to be a “purifying” unit, a set of charcoal lters and an air-diverter are required in addition to •
its standard aluminum lter set. Available at your local resellers. The standard aluminum lters are intended
to capture residue from cooking, the optional charcoal lters help to purify fumes exhausted from cooking,
and the optional air-diverter redirects ltered clean air back to the house.
Page 7
Charcoal Filter Installation
NOTE: The charcoal lters are preinstalled if you purchased the range hood with re-circulating kit from us.
Remove aluminum lters on hood.1.
Remove the safety lter under the aluminum lter by unscrewing two screws, then position the charcoal lter 2.
and align the screw holes, reinstall and fasten two screws.
Reinstall the aluminum lters back to the hood.3.
Charcoal lters must be replaced after 120 hours of use (or approximately every 2 to 3 months based on the 4.
average of 1 to 2 hours of daily cooking time). Available at your local reseller.
