Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition*, or CSA Standards C22. 1-94, Canadian Electrical Code,
Part 1 and C22. 2 No. 0-M91 - latest edition** and all local codes and ordinances.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualied electrician
determine that the ground path is adequate.
A 120-Volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, fused electrical supply is required on a separate 15-amp circuit, fused on
both sides of the line.
DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualied electrician if you are not sure that the range hood is properly grounded.
DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
IMPORTANT: Save this Installation Guide for electrical inspector’s use.
The range hood must be connected with copper wire/plug only.
The range hood should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through
exible armored or non-metallic sheathed copper cable. A U.L. - or C.S.A. - listed strain relief must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable.
Wire sizes (copper wire only) and connections must conform with the rating of the appliance as specied on
the model/serial rating label. Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition*, or CSA Standards C22. 1-94, Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and C22. 2

VENTING REQUIREMENTS
• Duct system must terminate to the outside (roof or side wall).
• DO NOT terminate the duct system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
• Use metal/aluminum duct only. Rigid metal/aluminum duct is recommended.
• DO NOT use plastic duct.
• Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airow.
• Calculate the following gures before installation:
1. Distance from the oor to the ceiling.
2. Distance from stove/countertop to range hood
3. Height of hood and duct cover.
For the most ecient & quiet operation:
• A distance of 26” to 30” is recommended* between stove top and the bottom of range hood
• It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof through 6” or bigger round metal/
aluminum duct work.
• The size of the duct should be uniform.
• Use no more than three 90° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of straight duct between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
• DO NOT install two elbows together.
• The length of duct system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide ecient performance.
• The duct system must have a damper. If the wall cap has a damper, DO NOT use damper (if supplied) on top of the
range hood.
• Use aluminum foil tape to seal all joints in the duct system.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap. USE 6” ROOF OR WALL VENT CAP
MINIMUM.
IMPORTANT:
• A minimum of a 6” round duct (standard for this range hood) must be used to maintain maximum airow
eciency. There is also an option to use an 8” round duct size for this unit.
• Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airow when connecting to provided
duct.
• Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions
and caps.
• ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns in the duct run. If a long duct run is re-
quired, increase the duct size from 6” to 8”. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake
reducer. Reducing the duct size will restrict airow and decrease eciency.
• If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away from opening and as far apart, between 2, as pos-
sible.
• Minimum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no less than 24-inch*.
• Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no higher than 32-inch*.
• It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat
damage and re hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance
and eciency.
• If available, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended hood
mounting height above range.
Minimum Duct Size:
• Round - 6” minimum
• Round - 8” recommended/optional

CALCULATING DUCT SYSTEM LENGTH
To calculate the length of the duct system you require, subtract the equivalent feet for each “Duct
piece” (Table Below) used in the system from the “Recommended maximum run” (Table Below).
The longest duct run that is acceptable (if completely straight) is 50 feet. The number of duct pieces
(elbow, transition, etc.) installed in your duct run will determine the maximum length the duct run can
be. Please refer to the example below:
Duct Run Calculation:
Recommended maximum run
6” or 8” round duct 50 ft
Duct piece deduction
Each 90º elbow used 9 ft
Each 45º elbow used 5 ft
Each 6” to 3/14 x 10” transition
used
Side wall cap with damper 7 ft
Roof cap 7 ft
Duct Run Calcuation example:
One roof cap, two 90º elbows, and one 45º elbow
used:
7ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 30ft used.
The above duct pieces used are equivalent to 30ft
of a straight duct run. Subtract 30ft from the al-
7 ft
lowable 50ft. The remaining distance of 20ft is the
longest that the straight ducting (in addition to the
duct pieces) can be.

• This range hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.
• Duct work can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall,
a 90° elbow is needed.
IMPORTANT:
• NEVER exhaust air or terminate
duct work into spaces between
walls, crawl spaces, ceiling,
attics or garages. All exhaust
must be vented to the outside.
• Use metal/aluminum duct work
only.
• Fasten all connections with
sheet metal screws and tape all
joints with certied Aluminum
Tape.
• Use caulking to seal exterior
wall or roof opening around the
cap.
• Colder climates require wrapping insulation around the ducts
and optional blowers.
• The system must have a
Backdraft Damper.

TROUBLESHOOTING
1. If the range hood or lights do not operate after
installation:
2. The range hood vibrates when the blower is
on:
3. The blower or fan seems weak: • Check that the duct sized used is at least 6” .
• Check if the range hood has been plugged in,
make sure that all power has been turned back
ON, fused not blown and all electrical wiring
are properly connected.
• Swap out light assembly to working ones to
determine whether it is caused by defective
bulbs. See Replacing the light bulbs page.
• The range hood might not have been secured
properly on to the ceiling or wall.
Range hood WILL NOT function eciently with
insucient duct size. For example: Connecting
this hood to 4”, 5’ or 6” duct will reduce the
suction and create extra noise and vibrations.
Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit is not
installed correctly or opening properly. A tight
mesh on a side wall cap unit might also cause
restriction to the air ow.
4. The lights work but the blower is not spinning

MAINTENANCE
SAFETY WARNING: Never put your hand into area housing the fan while the fan is operating!
For optimal operation, clean range hood and all bae/spacer/lter/grease tunnel/oil container regularly. Regular
care will help preserve the appearance of the range hood.
Cleaning Exterior surfaces:
• Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth. Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergent
(e.g. Comet Power Scruv®, EZ-O® oven cleaner), or steel wool/scoring pads, which will scratch and damage
the stainless steel surface. For heavier oil use liquid degrease such as “Forumla 409®” or “Fantastic®” brand
cleaner.
• If the hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the
hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions of the stainless steel
cleaner. CAUTION: Do not leave on too long as this may cause damage to the hood nish. Use a soft
towel to wipe o the cleaning solution, gently rub o any stubborn spots. Use a dry soft towel to dry the hood.
• After cleaning, you may use non abrasive stainless steel polish such as 3M® or ZEP®, to polish and bu out
the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly, a with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
• DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
• DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause
rusting.
• DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which may be harmful. Rinse
with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Filters:
IMPORTANT: Drain oil from grease tunnel and lters before oil and residue overow!
• The stainless steel lters are intended to lter out residue and grease from cooking. It need not be replaced
on a regular basis, but are required to be kept clean.
• Filters should be cleaned after every 30 hours of use.
• Stainless steel lters are dishwasher safe. Spray “Formula 409®” or equivalent degreasing detergent and
leave to soak if very dirty. Dry the lters and re-install before using the hood.
