!WARNING

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD

Because of the weight and size of the rangehood canopy, two or more people are needed to move and safely install the rangehood canopy.

Failure to properly lift rangehood could result in damage to the product or personal injury.

PLAN THE INSTALLATION

This rangehood can be installed as either ducted or ductless. In a ducted application, this rangehood can be vented through the wall or ceiling. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is used. When installed ductless, the rangehood vents out of grates on the sides of the chimney. Ductless installations require a Ductless Conversion Kit, available from your dealer.

WARNING! BEFORE MAKING ANY CUTS OR HOLES FOR INSTALLATION, DETERMINE WHICH VENTING METHOD WILL BE USED AND CAREFULLY CALCULATE ALL MEASUREMENTS.

CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH

The ductrun should not exceed 35 equivalent feet if ducted with the required minimum of 6" round ductwork. Calculate the length of the ductwork by adding the equivalent feet in FIGURE 2 for each piece of duct in the system An example is given in FIGURE 3.

For best results, use no more than three 90° elbows. Make sure that there is a minimum of 24" of straight duct between elbows if more than one is used. Do not install two elbows together. If you must elbow right away, do it as far away from the hood's exhaust opening as possible.
