*Gas cooktops must use 5" (12.7 cm) diameter for runs of 10' (3.0 m) or less.
**May be used to vent straight out the back of the cooktop and directly through the wall.
CALCULATING MAXIMUM DUCTING LENGTH
•Maximum ducting length is 60' (18.3 m).
•Each 90° elbow equals 5' (1.5 m) duct.
•Use no more than three 90° elbows.
•Flexible metal vent is not recommended.
•Do not install two elbows together.
NOTES:
•For ducting runs up to 30' (9.1 m), install cooktop as shipped.
•For ducting runs of 31' (9.4 m) to 60' (15.2 cm), remove the restricter ring on the blower inlet housing.
•For altitudes above 4500' (1272.0 m), reduce recommended vent run by 20% for best performance.
