FILTERING OR DUCTING ?
! Your hood is ready for use in the filtering version and can be installed in the
external exhausting version by removing the carbon filter and installing a
discharge tube (to be purchased) to connect the tube to the exterior.
Ducting version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a
special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.
Attention! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.
In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about 10°)
and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the outside.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be
removed.
Filter version
One active charcoal filter is needed for this and can be obtained from your usual
