The manuf acturer dec lines all
responsibility in the event of failure
to observe the instructions given
here for installation, maintenance
and suitabl e op eration of the
product. The manufacturer further
declines all responsibility for injury
due to negligence and the warranty
of the unit automatically expires due
to improper maintenance and/or
installation.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
It is advisable to test run the
range hood before installation.
Please read this entire manual and
ensure that you are fully conversant
with the requirements and limitations
permitted by code). Flexible ducting
could restrict airflow by up to 50%.
Always fasten co nnections with
sheet m etal screws and tape all
joints with certified Silver Tape or
Duct Tape. Do not use screws to
fasten ductwork to the hood, only
use tape as the screws will stop the
dampers from opening and your
hood will not work . This hood re-
quires a 6” round duct outlet. You
can increase the duct size of the
duct run but never decrease it. Use
the shortest and most direct route
possible. Always, wherever possi-
ble , red uce the nu mb er of
transitions and turns with as few
sharp angles as possible.
