Planning the Location
Planning the Duct Work
warning
warning
•
Observe all governing codes and ordinances during
planning and installation. Contact your local building
department for further information.
•
To prevent combustion by-products, smoke or odors
from entering the home and to improve efficiency,
tape all duct joints securely.
•
The range hood is heavy. To prevent personal injury
and property damage caused by the hood coming
loose from the ceiling, use only the hood mounting
bracket provided with the unit.
•
Use only duct work deemed acceptable by state,
municipal and local codes.
•
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 of the hood.
•
Carefully check the location where the hood is to be
installed. The hood should be placed for convenient
access. Make certain that electrical power can be provided in the selected location.
•
The hood model selected must be as wide as the
cooktop surface or wider.
•
Install the range hood and cooking appliance(s) so that
they can be removed if service is required.
•
Plan the installation so that all minimum dimensions
are met or exceeded (see page 3). Dimensions shown
provide minimum clearances, unless otherwise noted.
•
The mounting bracket must be attached directly to the
studs in the ceiling, or to a reinforced mounting block
secured to the studs. See below for mounting bracket
hole dimensions.
12 9/16”
(31.9 cm)
6 1/8”
(15.6 cm)
11” (27.9 cm) Dia.
Back Dimensions
•
The mounting bracket must be mounted directly above
the center of the cooking surface. The mounting surface must be level.
•
Allow clearance in the center of the mounting bracket
for the exhaust duct to pass through the ceiling.
4
CAUTION
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.
•
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. If existing duct work is smaller
than 8 inches in diameter, remove it and replace it with
8-inch duct work.
•
Do not rely on tape alone to seal duct joints. Fasten all
connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints
with certified silver tape or duct tape. Use sheet metal
screws as required 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.
Installation Specifications
Calculating the Maximum Duct Run Length
Duct Work Design Tips
The maximum straight duct length for the hood is 50 feet.
To determine the actual maximum duct run, subtract the
equivalent length of each elbow, transition and cap from 50
feet.
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°.

* The equivalent lengths of roof and wall caps vary with
model and configuration. For equivalent length, contact the
manufacturer or a qualified HVAC specialist.
Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as possible,
and as much space between bends 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
inches straight duct between them.
Avoid “S” or “back to back” use of adjacent elbows.
In regions where the weather gets extremely cold, use thermal breaks, such as a short section of non-metallic duct, to
avoid indoor heat loss. Locate the break as close as possible to the outside pass through point.
Do not use flexible metal duct.
DO NOT use duct work that is smaller in cross-sectional
area than the recommended types above.
