Cold weather installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize
backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break should
be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as
part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air
side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the vent
system enters the heated portion of the house.
Makeup air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems
when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air
movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.
Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your
area.
Venting Methods
This range hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.
A 8" (20 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not
included). The hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates
back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce
performance.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Tovent
through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.
Rear discharge
A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.
For non-vented (recirculating) installations
If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the
outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating)
version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector. Fumes
and vapors are recycled through the top grille.
