*IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to- round transition adaptor is used, the bottom corners of the damper will have to be cut to fit, using the tin

snips, in order to allow free movement of the damper.

Equivalent lengths of duct pieces are based on actual tests and reflect requirements for good venting performance with any vent hood.
