PLANNING DUCTWORK INSTALLATION

Begin planning ductwork by deciding where the duct will run between the range hood and the outside. For best performance, use the shortest possible duct run and a minimum number of elbows. There are several choices shown - FIGS. 1A - 1E.

In more complex ducting situations, a 3-1/4" rectangular ducting range hood can be converted to a round duct by means of a transition.

FIG. 1A. Ducting directly through the wall (for range hoods mounted on an exterior wall). Shown are two ways to duct through an outside wall. If a wall cap is used directly off the back of the hood, special care must be taken to make sure that the damper in the damper/duct connector on the hood and damper in the wall cap do not interfere with each other when the hood is oper- ating. This could result in either inadequate air delivery or back drafts. If this condition does exist, remove the hood damper flap. Sometimes when using a wall cap it is easier to duct vertically and then use an elbow as shown in FIG. 1B.

FIG. 1C. Ducting straight up through the roof using 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular duct. (For single story installations.)

FIG. 1D. Ducting between the ceiling joists (for multi-story instal- lations) or through the soffit space above the cabinets (where the soffit connects to an outside wall).

FIG. 1E. Straight up through the roof using 3-1/4” x 10” to 6” round duct transition and 6" round duct (for single-story installa- tions).

FIG. 1F. Straight up through the roof using 7" round duct (for single-story installations). Requires optional damper Model Damp Kit available from your local dealer.
