Installation Instructions
Meeting Electrical Codes
• The owner shall verify that all electrical requirements are met by the installer.
• The electrical installation (incl. minimum supply-wire size and grounding) must comply with the
National Electric code ANSI/NFPA (or latest revision), and local codes. Obtain a copy of the
ANSI/NFPA standard from:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101
• The hood's ground terminal must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring
system, or to a grounding conductor installed by a licensed electrician.
• Do not ground the unit or its wiring to a gas pipeline or to the neutral (white) power supply wire.
• Do not install a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
• Connect the hood directly to an electrical junction box. Hard-wire the hood per local code
directly to a dedicated, 3-wire, grounded, single-phase circuit rated at 120 Vac 60 Hz, 15 Amp.

WARNING
Follow local codes during planning/installation. Contact the local building department for details.
Use only code-approved ductwork.

Page 14
Installation Instructions
Planning the Ductwork
WARNING
• To prevent combustion by-products, smoke, or odors from entering the home, and to improve
efficiency, tape all duct joints securely.
• Range hoods may impede proper flow of smoke and combustion gases from furnaces, gas water
heaters, and fireplaces. To avoid drawing lethal gases into the home, follow the manufacturer’s
directions for these devices and NFPA/ASHRAE recommendations.
• Failure to install a remote blower or proper ductwork may cause a backdraft and insufficient
venting of smoke/fumes.
• DO NOT add an in-line or external blower to lengthen the duct. Even small differences between
blower air-flow rates can greatly reduce the hood’s air draw.
CAUTION
To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, never duct air into interior spaces.
WARNING
During duct installation, ensure the damper flaps on top of the hood can open freely.
• Building codes may require makeup air systems
A B
to be used with ventilation systems that move air
at greater than the specified rate (CFM), which
rate depends on locale. In designing the system,
consult an HVAC specialist for local requirements
and to ensure best performance.
• All ductwork material (incl. screws and foil tape)
shall be provided by the customer.
• Ductwork must not interfere with floor joists or wall studs.
• On dual-exhaust models, the two 8” exhausts may be merged into one 10” duct using Dacor
Transition Kit AHT10.
• Fasten all joints with sheet-metal screws, and seal with certified duct/foil tape.
• Typically, the blower vents through the hood top (A, above); however, the blower can be rotated
to vent through the rear (B, above). When planning ductwork, always find the shortest, most
direct route to the outside.
Duct-Length Calculation Table
The type of duct determines the hood’s maximum straight duct length. To determine your
maximum length, start with the duct run’s total max. length, then subtract all of the ductwork
equivalent lengths. (See the chart.)

Installation Instructions
Planning the Ductwork, cont.
Ductwork Equivalent Lengths
For each new elbow and transition, you must subtract “equivalent lengths” from your total
maximum duct run length to compensate for wind resistance.
Piece Subtract
8” 90° Elbow
8” 45° Elbow
10” 90° Elbow
10” 45° Elbow
3” x 10” to Round 90° Transition
3 1/4” x 10” to 8”/10” Round Transition
Wall Cap w/Damper
Roof Cap
Equivalent lengths of roof and wall caps
vary with model and configuration.
Ductwork Tips
• Try to minimize transitions/turns/sharp angles (e.g., two staggered 45° angles are better than
one sharp 90° angle).
• Keep turns as far from the hood exhaust as possible with as much space between bends as
possible.
• Use round instead of rectangular ducting, especially when elbows are needed.
• If multiple elbows are used, try to keep at least 24 in. of straight duct between each elbow.
• Avoid using “S” or back-to-back adjacent elbows.
• In extremely cold-weather regions, use thermal breaks (i.e., short sections of non-metallic duct)
to avoid indoor heat loss. Put the break as close to the outside pass-through point as possible.
• Do not use flexible metal ducting, or ductwork smaller than what the tables advise.
• The hood exhaust connects to an 8” round duct. You can increase the duct size over the duct run.
• To prevent backdraft, never decrease the duct size over the run. If existing ductwork is under 8"
in diameter, replace it with 8” ductwork.
• Join ducting with sheet-metal screws, then seal with certified duct/foil tape. Never join ducting
with tape only.
• Support the weight of the ducting with sheet-metal screws as needed.
• To avoid backdraft, a damper at the duct outlet may be required.

WARNING
• Electricity to the range hood should be installed only by a licensed electrician.
• Observe all local codes during installation. Consult the local building department as needed.
• Anchor the hood to the wall as instructed to avoid an injury hazard.
• To avoid electric-shock and property damage, do not drill/cut near in-wall plumbing and wiring.
• Use the temporary support brackets only until the hood is permanently anchored.
