PLAN THE INSTALLATION
This rangehood can be installed as either ducted or ductless. The blower 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 Kit, available from your dealer.

The remote blower connects to the rangehood using a separate wiring cable not supplied with the rangehood. The wiring cable should be installed at the same time as the ductwork.

RANGEHOOD ASSEMBLY
FIGURE 2
CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if ducted with 3 1/4" by 10" rectangular duct and 60 equivalent feet if ducted with 9" round ductwork. Calculate the length of the ductwork by adding the equivalent feet in FIGURE 3 for each piece of duct in the system An example is given in FIGURE 4. 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. Remote blowers require 9" round duct.
