3. Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most
types of walls/ceilings, consult a Qualified Installer,
check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.
4. Do not use fle x ducting.
5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional
backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air
flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize
conduction of outside temperatures as part of the
ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of
the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the
ducting enters the heated portion of the house.
6. Make up air: Local b uilding codes may require the use of

All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this
manual, is declined.
Venting methods
Vent Exhaust Option
The hood is designed for vertical or horizontal
discharge or can be installed in a recirculating
ductless version:
Vertical discharge:
Use a rectangular duct 3 1/4” x 10”.
Horizontal discharge:
Use a rectangular duct 3 1/4” x 10”.
Recirculating (non vented ductless).
NOTE: For ductless (Recirculating) version only: purchase the Ductless Recirculating Kit.
Minimum Duct Size (Ducting/Ductless version): 3-1/4" x 10" Rectangular Pipe.
Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood is above the cooktop, the more efficient the
capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
CAUTION: FOR GAS RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE IS AT 30" (76,2 CM)
ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM IS NOT LESS THAN 24" (61 CM)
AND NOT MORE THAT 30" (76,2 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
