Considerations before installing Hood

1.For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.

CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.

2.If allowed in your area, use metallic flex ducting only to connect rigid duct directly to transitions.

3.COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

4.Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke. We recommends the hood be installed 30-36" above the countertop. The lower height may be inconvenient for tall people and large cooking vessels. Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.
