Two staggered 45 degree angles are
better than one 90 degree. Make
these turns as far away from the
motor exhaust as possible, with as
much space between each bend.

External Venting Requirements

When planning new ductwork, always
look for the m ost direct route to the
outside. Venting can be done through
the roof or directly through the back
outside wall. (See Figure 1 )
Only use rigid type m etal ducting
(plastic ducting is generally not permit-
ted b y code). Flexible duc ting could
restrict airflow by up to 50%. Always
fasten connections with sheet metal
screws and tape all joints with certifie d
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 requires a 6” round duct outlet.
You can increase the duct size of the
duct run but never decrease it. Use
the shortest and most
