Height of island canopy

The island canopy is designed for 2440 mm high ceilings.

The chimney is telescopic and is designed for hood installations between 600 to 750 mm above the cooking surface.

Ascertain the desired installation height of the island canopy. Any installation above 750 mm will compromise the extraction performance.

The air outlet from the motor requires 150 mm round ducting which requires a 160 mm (min) diameter hole in the ceiling.

A = 600 min (electric cook top)

A = 650 min (gas cook top)

Recirculation

For recirculation, please purchase a recirculation kit (part no. RR1744). The recirculation kit is required to channel the air out through the side-vents at the top of the flue.

Note: a ducting hole is not required to be cut in the ceiling if a recirculation kit is fitted.

Ducting

For ducted installation, it is recommended that you use 150 mm diameter, rigid or semi-rigid ducting. This will require a 160 mm (min) round hole in the ceiling, which the decorative chimney will cover. Care should be taken to align the canopy with the decorative chimney allowing sufficient clearance to accommodate the ducting.

For optimum efficiency, use smooth-wall, solid galvanized or plastic ducting for reduced noise and increased airflow. Flexible ducting should only be used as a last resort (ie in difficult installations) and if used, ensure that it is pulled tight.

The smoother, straighter and shorter the ducting the quieter and more efficient the wall canopy will perform.

All ducting must comply with local requirements and building codes.

Note: we recommend an Easy Fit by Fisher & Paykel or a UNIDUCT ducting system, products that have been designed to expel air efficiently.

Preparing the island canopy for installation

Before drilling any holes check that the area behind the surface to be drilled is clear of any electrical cables, pipes etc.

Fixing to a solid joist or 50 mm deep truss is recommended.

Whenever possible protect the cooktop with cardboard or the like to prevent damage on installation.
