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 P (see Figure 2). The lower the hood above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke. Be sure that your hood model fits your installation.
