Advanced Planning
Ductwork Planning
• These vent hoods are equipped for 10" round ductwork. In most
instances they may be transitioned to 8" round.
• T his hood may be vented vertically through upper cabinets, soffit or
ceiling. A duct transition piece is supplied for vertical exhaust. Use
locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.
• Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
• Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.
• Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible. For
satisfactory performance, duct run should not exceed 150 ft.
equivalent length for any duct configurations.
• Refer to “Duct Fittings” chart to compute the maximum permissible
length for duct runs to the outdoors.
• Use metal ductwork only.
• Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the exterior opening.
Order the wall or roof cap and any transition needed in advance.
Wall Framing for Adequate Support
• These vent hoods are heavy. Adequate structural support must
be provided. Hoods must be secured to vertical studs in the wall.
• It is strongly recommended that the vent hood with duct cover
be on site before final framing and wall finishing. This will also
help to accurately locate the ductwork and electrical service.
Decorative Duct Covers:
Decorative duct covers, 6" and 12" high, are available to fit all
models. The duct cover conceals the ductwork running from
the top of the hood to the ceiling or soffit. Stack one or more
duct covers over the top of the hood to reach your ceiling height.
