Venting requirements
Fire Hazard
l Terminate venting system to outside.
. Do Not terminate the vent in an atlic or other enclosed space.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in a fire.
Ductwork needed for installation is not included. If roof or wall cap has a damper, Do Not use damper supplied with hood.
Determine which outside venting method needs to be used. NOTE: If a
The length of the ductwork and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance. The size of the ductwork should be uniform. Do Not install two elbows together. Use duct tape to seal all joints in the ductwork system. Ductwork can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around exhaust hood. For the most efficient and quiet operation, it is recommended that the range be vented vertically through the roof through 7” round ductwork.

Recommended ductwork length
Use 3- l/4” x lo” or 7” ductwork with a maximum length of 26 feet for ductwork system. For best performance, use no more than three 90” elbows. To calculate the length of system you need, add the equivalent feet for each ductwork piece used in the system. See the following examples.
