CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the unit.
Motor
The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings make
excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor. The impeller
should also be replaced.
Mesh Filters
The mesh filters should be cleaned frequently. Using warm water with detergent. Mesh
filters are dishwasher safe.
Clean all-mesh filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of
the filter may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water conditions but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.
See “MESH FILTERS” section for removal and installation instructions.
Non-ducted Charcoal Filter
The non-ducted charcoal filter should be changed every 6 months or when prompted on
the hood controls. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra grease, such
as frying and wok cooking. See “MESH FILTERS” section for removal and installation
instructions.
LED Lighting
In the unlikely event that your LED strip fails, please contact Zephyr to order replacement
parts and schedule service.
Stainless Steel Cleaning
DO:
• Regularly wash with clean cloth or rag
soaked with warm water and mild soap or
liquid dish detergent.
• Always clean in the direction of original
polish lines.
• Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3
times) after cleaning. Wipe dry completely.
• You may also use a specialized household
stainless steel cleaner.
Avoid: When choosing a detergent
• Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel
• Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces
rapidly.
• Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc.,
are highly explosive and should never be used close to a range.
DON’T:
• Use any steel or stainless steel wool or
any other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.
• Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
• Allow dirt to accumulate.
• Let plaster dust or any other construction
residues reach the hood. During construction/renovation, cover the range hood to
make sure no dust sticks to the stainless
steel surface.

REMOTE BLOWERS (EXTERNAL AND IN-LINE)
CAUTION: To reduce risk of f ire and electric shock, install this range hood only with External
Blower Model CBE-1000, and In-Line Blower Model PBN-1000A. Other blowers cannot be
substituited.
INSTALLING THE DUCTWORK: REMOTE BLOWER
NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only rigid metal ductwork.
1. Choose the location where the External Blower or In-Line Blower will be mounted. See
illustrations below for mounting location suggestions and restrictions. Choose the air outlet
location. See Fig. 3.
2. A straight, short duct run using a minimum 10” round duct will allow the hood to perform
most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as
few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be required for best performance with long
duct runs.
4. After the External or In-Line Blower has been installed, connect round metal ductwork
and work back towards the hood location. Use duct tape to seal joints between ductwork
sections.

1. Decide where the ductwork will run
between the hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run using a minimum
6” round duct for single internal blower and
10” round duct for the dual internal blower
will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will
reduce the performance of the hood. Use
as few of them as possible.
4. Install a roof cap. Connect round metal
ductwork to cap and work back towards
hood location. Use duct tape to seal the
joints between ductwork sections (Fig.4).
5. Choose blower outlet position desired. Blower
oulet options are from top, side or front of blower
housing. FIG. 5

PREPARE THE CEILING OPENING
PREPARE THE HOOD SUPPORT
The hood should always be centered over the
cooktop. Make sure there is adequate space
in the ceiling structure to install the hood and
ductwork. The hood should be mounted 30”
to 72” above the cook top for best removal of
cooking impurities. Use joist size lumber to
frame in around the range hood opening. The
ceiling structure must be able to support the
weight of the hood. Fig 7.
