IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Have a qualified technician install the range hood. It is the
installer's responsibility to comply with installation clearances
specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating
plate is located inside the range hood on the rear wall of the
range hood.
Canopy range hood location should be away from strong draft
areas, such as windows, doors and strong heating vents.
Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given
dimensions provide minimum clearance.
The canopy range hood is factory set for venting through the roof
or through the wall.
All openings in ceiling and wall where canopy range hood will be
installed must be sealed.
For Mobile Home Installations
The installation of this range hood must conform to the
Manufactured Home Construction Safety Standards, Title 24
CFR, Part 328 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home

The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap
has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range
hood.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the
cap.
• The size of the vent should be uniform.
Cold weather installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize
backward cold air flow and athermal 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 make up 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.

Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, add the
equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.
Vent Piece Equivalent Length
45° elbow 2.5 ft
(0.8 m)
90° elbow 5.0 ft
(1.5 m)
The maximum equivalent vent lengths are:
6" (15.2 cm) round vent - 35 ft (10.7 m)
7" (17.8 cm) round vent - 40 ft (12.2 m)
8" (20.3 cm) round vent - 50 ft (15.2 m)
9" (22.9 cm) and 10" (25.4 cm) round vents - 60 ft (18.3 m)
