ADVANCE PLANNING

Ductwork Planning

•These vent hoods are equipped for 10" round
ductwork. For best performance, use 10" round
ductwork on the 48" wide hoods. 30" and 36" hoods
may be transitioned to 8" round.

•This hood may be vented vertically through upper
cabinets, soffit or ceiling. A duct transition piece is
supplied for vertical exhaust. Use locally supplied
elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.

•Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

•Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.

•Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible.

For satisfactory performance, duct run should
not exceed 150 ft. equivalent length for any duct
configurations.

•Refer to “Duct Fittings” chart to compute the
maximum permissible length for duct runs to the
outdoors.

•Use metal ductwork only.

•Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the

exterior opening. Order the wall or roof cap and any
transition needed in advance.

Wall Framing for Adequate Support

•These vent hoods are heavy. Adequate structural
support must be provided. Hoods must be secured to
vertical studs in the wall.

•It is strongly recommend that the vent hood with
duct cover be on site before final framing and wall
finishing. This will also help to accurately locate the
ductwork and electrical service.

Decorative Duct Covers:

Decorative duct covers, 6" and 12" high, are available to
fit all models. The duct cover conceals the ductwork
running from the top of the hood to the ceiling or
soffit. Stack one or more duct covers over the top of
the hood to reach your ceiling height.

DUCT FITTINGS

Use this chart to compute maximum
permissable lengths for duct runs to
outdoors.

Note:

Do not exceed maximum permissable

equivalent lengths!

Maximum recommended duct
length for these hoods: 150 feet

Flexible ducting:

If flexible metal ducting is used, all
the equivalent feet values in the table
should be doubled. The flexible
metal duct should be straight and
smooth and extended as much as
possible.

Do NOT use flexible plastic ducting.

Note:

Any home ventilation system, such as a

ventilation hood, may interrupt the proper flow of
combustion air and exhaust required by fireplaces,
gas furnaces, gas water heaters and other naturally
vented systems. To minimize the chance of interruption
of such naturally vented systems, follow the heating
equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety
standards such as those published by NFPA and ASHRAE.
