WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside the house or building.

Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

Tape all duct joints securely to prevent combustion by-products, smoke or odors from entering the home.

Doing so will also improve system efficiency.

Do not exhaust more than one vent into a single duct.

Use only duct work constructed of materials deemed acceptable by state, municipal and local codes.

Range hoods may interrupt the proper flow of smoke and combustion gases from furnaces, gas water heaters and fireplaces. To avoid drawing lethal gases into the home, follow the manufactures recommendation for these devices and consult NFPA and ASHRAE recommendations.

DO NOT

install an additional in-line or external blower to increase the length of the duct run. Even small differences between blower air flow rates can greatly reduce the air draw by the hood.

All duct work materials (including screws and duct tape) must be purchased separately by the customer. When planning new duct work, always look for the shortest, most direct route to the outside.

The hood exhaust connects to an 8-inch round duct.

You can increase the duct size over the duct run if desired. To prevent a back draft, never decrease the duct size over the run.

Do not rely on duct tape alone to seal duct joints.

Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with duct tape. Use sheet metal screws as require to support the duct weight.

To prevent back-drafts, a damper at the duct outlet may also be required.

Make sure duct work does not interfere with floor joists or wall studs.

Calculating the Maximum Duct Run Length

The maximum straight duct length for the hood is 100 feet. For each elbow and transition added to the duct work, a certain number of feet must be subtracted from the maximum straight length to compensate for wind resistance. To determine the length the duct work cannot exceed, subtract all of the equivalent lengths of the elbows and transitions listed below from 100 feet.

Duct Work Design Tips

Wherever possible, reduce the number of transitions and turns to as few sharp angles as possible. Two staggered 45° angles are better than one 90°.

Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as possible, with as much space between each bend as possible.

For best performance, use round duct instead of rectangular, especially when elbows are required.

If multiple elbows are used, try to keep a minimum of

24” (61 cm) of straight duct between them.

Avoid “S” or “back to back” configurations of adjacent elbows.

In regions where the weather gets extremely cold, thermal breaks, such as a short section of non-metallic duct, should be used to avoid indoor heat loss. The break should be located as close to the pass through point to the outside as possible.

Do not use flexible metal duct.

Do not use duct work that is smaller in cross-sectional area than the recommended size duct (8” round).
