Determine which outside venting method
needs to be used NOTE: If a non-vented
(recirculating) installation is desired, follow
instructions on Panel D.
The length of the ductwork and number of
elbows should be kept to a minimum to
provide efficient performance. The size of
the ductwork should be uniform. Do Not
install two elbows together. Use duct tape
to seal all joints in the ductwork system.
Ductwork can terminate either through the
roof or wall. Use caulking to seal exterior
wall or roof opening around exhaust hood.
For the most efficient and quiet operation, it
is recommended that the range be vented
vertically through the roof through 7” round
ductwork.

and what types of materials are needed.
