or as few elbows as possible.
CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.
2. At least two people are necessary for installation.
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 flex 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 building codes may require the use of
Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation
Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement.

Ducting Options and Examples
Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.
All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this
manual, is declined.
Venting methods
The hood is equipped with a transition B for discharge of fumes to the outside (Ducting version).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the Ductless (Recirculating) version. Attach a charcoal filter on the internal side of the metal filter and the deflector F directly on the
transition (Cabinet without ceiling) or at the top of the cabinet. Fumes and vapors are recycled directly through the deflector F
(Cabinet without ceiling) or by means of a duct connected to the transition B and the deflector F.
NOTE: For ductless (Recirculating) version only: purchase the Ductless Recirculating Kit.
Minimum Duct Size (Ducting/Ductless version): 6" Round Pipe.
Preparation
This hood is designed to be installed inside a cabinet (only Blower unit housing) and fixed at the bottom of the cabinet, check
that the cabinet, its bottom, the hanging system of the cabinet and the wall where cabinet is installed is strong enough to support
the hood.
The inside of the cabinet should be accessible.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of cabinet.
We suggest to mount the cabinet onto the wall after having installed the hood.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance.
NOTE: For ductless (recirculating) version only: Check that there is enough clearance from ceiling and deflector once
this last has been mounted to let an easy recirculation of air.
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 NOT LESS
THAN 24" (61 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 32"
(81 cm) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.
