uniform.

elbows.

• Make sure there is a minimum

of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent

between the elbows if more

than one elbow is used.

together.

• The length of vent system and

number of elbows should be

kept to a minimum to provide

efficient performance.

damper. If roof or wall cap has

a damper, Do Not use damper

supplied with the range hood.
