VENTING REQUIREMENTS

The vent system for venting out of the top of range hood can be terminated either through
the roof or wall. Use a 6" (15.2 cm) round vent. The vent system for venting out the rear
of the range hood must be terminated through the wall. Use a 3³⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm)
rectangular vent. For rear venting the Damper Assembly Kit is required. See “Assistance or
Service” section to order.

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air
turbulence that gently reduces performance.

Non-Vented (recirculating) Installations Through the Soffit/
Cabinet

If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the outside, the
range hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, using
a recirculation kit. The recirculation kit Part Number is W10490330. See
“Assistance or Service” section to order.

For non-vented (recirculating) installations only, the range hood can be
vented indoors through the top of the cabinet or soffit.
