INSTALLING THE CHIMNEY HOOD
DUCTING
The hood is more effective when used in the extraction mode (ducted to the outside).
When used in the extraction mode ensure the ducting spigot has been correctly fitted as
illustrated.
The ducting used must be Æ125
(5ins) or Æ150mm (6ins), flexible or rigid and must be manufactured from fire retardant material, produced to BS.476 or DIN.4102- B1. The choice should be made by the installer. However, we recommend flexible ducting should only be used as an accessory as rigid ducting will provide better performance while reducing noise levels.
The ducting flange B should be sleeved over the spigot A when using 125mm (5ins) ducting as the European ducting spigot is Æ120mm.
Ducting kits can be obtained from Kitchen
Specialist Distriutors, Builders Merchants and
DIY stores.
When the chimney hood is ducted to the
outside the charcoal filter must be removed.
RECIRCULATION
If you are using the hood in the recirculation
mode, ensure the charcoal filter is in position.
