Specification Revised 1/03
Optional Accessories (Available at additional cost)
JX22SS – Stainless Steel Decorative Panel Kit
When replacing a Hi/Low range with a microwave/convection oven or Spacemaker over
a range model, this panel kit fills in the area between the microwave and range left by
the Hi/Low model.
HOOD EXHAUST DUCT: Outside ventilation requires a HOOD EXHAUST DUCT. Read the
following carefully.
EXHAUST CONNECTION: The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with a standard
3-1/4" x 10" rectangular duct. If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round transition
adaptor must be used. Do not use less than a 6” diameter duct
REAR EXHAUST: If a rear or horizontal exhaust is to be used, care should be taken to
align exhaust with space between studs, or wall should be prepared at the time it is
constructed by leaving enough space between the wall studs to accommodate exhaust.
MAXIMUM DUCT LENGTH: For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of
3-1/4" x 10" rectangular or 6” diameter round duct should not exceed 140 equivalent feet.
ELBOWS, TRANSITIONS,WALL AND ROOF CAPS, etc., present additional resistance
to airflow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct which is longer than their actual
physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add the equivalent length of all
transitions and adaptors plus the lengths of all straight duct sections. The chart below
shows the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ducts.
