To reduce the risk of fire, only use metal ductwork.

Please read and follow the

"IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of personal injury. Follow all local building codes when installing the hood.

Exhaust ducting and connections

Use smooth or flexible pipwork made from approved non-flammable materials for exhaust ducting.

To achieve the most efficient air extraction and quietest noise levels, consider the following:

– The diameter of the ductwork should not be less than 6" (150 mm).

– If flat ducting is used, the cross section must not be smaller than the cross section of the ventilation exhaust.

– The ducting should be as short and straight as possible.

– Use ductwork with a wide raduis.

– The exhaust duct must not be bent or compressed.

– Make sure all connections are secure.

– Where the ductwork is horizontal, it must slope away from the hood at least

1

/

8

" per foot (1 cm per meter) to prevent condensation dripping into the appliance.

– If the exhaust is ducted through an outside wall, a Telescopic Wall Vent can be used.

28

Air extraction

Condensate trap

optional accessory

In some cases, a condensate trap may be required to collect and evaporate any condensation which may develop.

This optional accessory is available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and 6" (150 mm) in diameter.

– If the exhaust is ducted into an inactive flue, the air must be expelled parallel to the flow direction of the flue.

Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.

^ When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and if possible directly above the exhaust outlet.

Important

If the ductwork runs through rooms, ceilings, garages, etc. where temperature variations exist, it may need to be insulated to reduce condensation.
