ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

It is the customer’s responsibility:

• To contact a qualied electrician

• To assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical

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 qualied 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 qualied 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 specied 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 No. 0-M91 - latest edition** and all local codes and ordinances. A U.L. - or C.S.A. - listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range hood and at the junction box).

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 airow.

• 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 e󰀩cient & 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 e󰀩cient 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 airow e󰀩ciency. 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 airow 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 airow and decrease e󰀩ciency.

• 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 26-inch*.

• Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no higher than 30-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 e󰀩ciency.

• 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

7 ft

allowable 50ft. The remaining distance of 20ft is the longest that the straight ducting (in addition to the vent pieces) can be.

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 e󰀩ciently with insu󰀩cient 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 at all, is stuck or is rattling.

5. The hood is not venting out properly: • Make sure the distance between the stove top

and the bottom of the hood is within* 24” and

30” in distance. *Due to dierent ceiling height congurations, recommended height may not be applicable.

• Reduce the number of elbows and length of

duct work. Check if all joints are properly con-

nected, sealed, and taped.

• Make sure the power is on high speed for

heavy cooking.

USE AND CARE INFORMATION

Operations:

• Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before operating the appliance. Save these instructions for future reference.

• Always leave safety grills and lters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch

on to hair, ngers and loose clothing.

• NEVER dispose cigarette ashes, ignitable substances, or any foreign objects into blowers.

• NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily overheat and catch re. The

risk of self combustion is higher when the oil has been used several times.

• NEVER cook on “open” ames under the range hood. Check deep-fryers during use: Superheated oil may be ammable.

Cleaning:

• The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and lters may cause increased inammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue build-up at all times to prevent possible res.

• Filters must be cleaned periodically and free from accumulation of cooking residue. Old and worn lters must be replaced immediately.

• DO NOT operate blowers when lters are removed. Never disassemble parts to clean without proper

instructions. Disassembly is recommended to be performed by qualied personnel only. Read and un-

derstand all instructions and warnings in this manual before proceeding.

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 ba󰀪e/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.
