1. SELECT BLOWER OPTION AND INSTALL DUCTWORK

Either an interior or exterior blower or in-line blower may be used with this insert. The insert model RMIP33 or RMIP45 must be installed with blower models P5, P8, HLB3, HLB6, HLB9, HLB11, 331H, 332H, 335 or 336 only. Other blowers cannot be substituted. (Blowers sold separately).

Plan where and how the ductwork will be installed. Access to the top of the hood is preferred for connection of ductwork. As an alternative, flexible metal ductwork may be used.

If installing in-line blower, refer to instructions packed with in-line blower and follow steps 1 up to 8, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19 and up of this manual.

Install proper-sized ductwork, elbows and roof or wall cap for the type of blower you are installing. Use round ductwork, with a short section (about 4’ expanded) of flexible metal duct (optional) for attachment to the transition. Use screws to attach flexible metal duct to the rigid duct. Use 2” duct tape to seal duct joints.

The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be less than 24”. A maximum of 30” above cooktop is highly recommended for best capture of cooking impurities.

Distances over 30” are at the installer and users discretion.
