INSTALLING THE HOOD

• For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a

straight run or as few elbows as possible.

CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.

• One people is necessary for installation. On avarage 2 hours are necessary to complete installation (without considering cut to be done on wall and or on cabinet, installation of ducts , conduit and electrical connections to the mains).

installation steps:

12 installation steps are required for both installation methods Wall mount installation steps or in alternative Cabinet installation

• The hood is fitted with Screws and Drywall Anchors suitable for most surfaces, consult a Qualified Installer, check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.

• Do not use flex ducting.

Tools required

Flat blade and Phillips screwdrivers Pencil and tape measure Metal snips (in some applications) Electric drill Saw (saber or keyhole) Pliers Level Caulking Flashlight Wire stripper Safety glasses Gloves Step ladder

• COLD WEATHER installations should have an

additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

• Make up air: Local building codes may require

the use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted 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.

• Typical installation

The height from the countertop to the bottom of the hood is 24" to 30”.These hoods are not recommended to be used over indoor grills.

1. Choose vent options

The hood is designed ready to be used for vertical discharge as shown below. Note: see also Fig. 1-3-5 for Cabinet preparation.

If desired, the hood can be converted for horizontal discharge as shown below. Note: see also Fig. 2-3-5 for Cabinet and rear wall preparation.

• DUCTING

Provide a Round Duct having a diameter of 8” see Figure 2 and Figure 3 for location on cabinet bottom.

Install a 1/2” conduit from the service panel long enough to reach the hood once it is installed. Power supply must be rated for 120 V AC, 60 Hz. 15 or 20 A.

TABLE 2. DUCTWORK INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

For safety reasons, ducting should vent directly outdoors (not into an attic, underneath the house, into the garage or into any enclosed space). Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible. Duct fittings (elbows and transitions) reduce air flow efficiency. Back to back elbows and „S“ turns give very poor delivery and are not recommended. A short straight length of duct at the inlet of the remote blower gives the best delivery. Transition to duct from the integral blower or remote duct transition as close to the downdraft as is pos-sible.

In order of preference, use 1st. 10" round duct 2nd. 8" round duct 3rd. 3-1/4" x 14" duct 4th. 7" round duct 5th. 3-1/4" x l0" duct

6th. 6" round duct The use of flexible metal round duct should only be used when no other duct fitting exists. Limit use to short lengths and do not crush when making corners.

• After having choosen the vent option:

1. Prepare duct and conduit cut outs, see

Fig.1,2,3 as needed.
