Electrical Power Supply
Requirements
It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that
the electrical connection of this appliance
is performed by a qualified electrician. The
electrical installation, including minimum supply
wire size and grounding, must be in accordance
with the National Electric code ANSI/NFPA 70-
1993* (or latest revision) and local codes and
ordinances.
*A copy of this standard may be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101
The correct 120VAC, 60Hz, 15A circuit must
be supplied for this appliance from a separate,
grounded, circuit that is protected by a properly
sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Duct Planning
WARNINGS
1. To reduce the risk of fire and
to properly exhaust air, ducted
fans must be vented to outside.
Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls, ceilings,
attics, crawl spaces or garages.
2. Improper installation,
adjustment, alteration, service,
or maintenance can cause
personal injury or property
damage.
3. To reduce the risk of fire,
use only ductwork materials
deemed acceptable by state,
municipal and local codes.
NOTES:
1. Best performance is achieved
by using round duct instead of
rectangular, especially when
elbows are required.
2. If multiple elbows are needed,
ensure that there is a minimum
of 24” of straight duct between
any two elbows.
3. Avoid “S” or “back to back”
configurations caused by
adjacent elbows.
4. Thermal breaks, such as a
short section of non-metallic
duct, should be used in areas
of extreme cold.
5. A back-draft damper at the duct
outlet may also be required.
6. Do not use flexible metal duct.
7. Do not use ductwork that is
smaller in cross-sectional area
than the recommended size
duct.

Higher volumes of air exhausted by the vent
system result in better overall removal of smoke
and fumes from the kitchen. Longer duct runs
and greater numbers of duct transitions reduce
air volume, therefore it is extremely important
to keep duct runs as short and straight as
possible. When longer runs or multiple turns
are unavoidable, and inline blower may be used
to assist the remote blower.
To ensure that your installation meets this
requirement, add the actual straight length of
duct to the equivalent straight length of all duct
fittings to determine the total equivalent straight
length of duct. (Refer to the table above, which
shows various common duct fittings with their
equivalent straight lengths for various common
duct sizes). If this total equivalent straight
length is less than or equal to the maximum
limits specified, then the installation is proper.
Consider the duct size that corresponds to the
majority of the duct used in the installation.
Sample problem:
Given a remote system installation having 25
feet of 31¼” x 10” rectangular duct, one (1) 90-
degree 3 1¼” x 10” elbow, and one (1) 31¼” x
10” to 8” round transition, would this installation
be proper?
Solution:
1. Add the total length of straight duct:
25’ (of 31¼” x 10”) = 25’.

8. Do not rely on duct tape alone
to seal duct joints. Use sheet
metal screws as require to
support the duct weight.
9. The vent hood and cooking
appliance(s) must be
removable if service is
required.
10. Be certain that the ductwork
does not interfere with floor
joists or wall studs.
11. It is important to keep a
minimum number of turns in
the duct run, and to keep the
run as short as possible.
12. Do not restrict the air flow
by reducing the duct cross-
sectional areas when making
hard joints or squeezing
through a tight area.
13. With concrete slab
construction, "box-in" the
ductwork to prevent it from
collapsing when the wet
concrete is poured. Also allow
room for electrical conduit.
14. Cross-drafts or air currents
caused by adjacent open
windows or doors, HVAC
outlets, ceiling fans, and
recessed ceiling lights reduce
vent efficiency.
2. Using Table above, determine the
equivalent straight length of all duct
fittings: 90-degree 3 1¼” x 10” elbow
= 15’. 31¼” x 10” to 8” round transition
= 4’.
3. Add (1) and (2) to determine the
total equivalent straight length of the
complete duct system: 25’ + 15’ + 4’
= 44’ total equivalent straight duct
length.
4. For the remote system with 31¼” x
10” duct, the maximum allowable total
equivalent straight length of duct is 50
feet. Thus, this proposed installation is
proper.
After determining that your proposed ductwork
meets the maximum duct length requirement,
proceed with the location planning.

NOTES:
1. If there is a backsplash with a
curved base at the countertop
level, then the clearance
behind the vent will be
reduced. Keep this in mind to
avoid interference.
2. If your cabinet differs from
the standard 24” deep, 36”
high cabinets shown in Figure
4, then adjust your cutout
locations accordingly to
prevent interference.
3. If a drawer or shelf is being
installed below a gas cooktop,
be certain to avoid interference
with the gas supply line and
the drawer or shelf.
4. For installation with gas
cooktops, a 90-degree elbow
must be connected to the
cooktop gas inlet to avoid
interference with the Raised
Vent plenum front.
Locate the house junction box adjacent to the
vent junction box found at the lower right of the
vent plenum.

Installing the Raised Vent
Loosely attach the support legs to the left and
right sides of the plenum using the hex nuts
provided. Place the vent into the rear of the
countertop cutout. Adjust the support leg height
so that the end caps are gently resting on the
counter, then tighten the hex nuts. Secure the
support legs to the cabinet floor with the screws
provided.
For the cabinet blower application, place the
adhesive-backed foam tape provided with the
cabinet blower onto the left and right vertical
blower flanges. Slide the blower outlet into the
exhaust duct, while making sure that the lower
blower flange slides into the blower mounting
groove on the vent. Use duct tape to seal the
connection between the blower outlet and the
duct. Support the duct weight as necessary to
ensure sealed joints.
For downdraft vents utilizing the remote blowers,
locate the AREM found in the RV carton. Attach
the adhesive-backed foam tape provided with
the blower to the left and right vertical blower
cover flanges. Attach the Remote Blower Cover
(AREM) to the large opening in the front of the
vent. The vent is now ready to be ducted for a
remote blower installation.
NOTE:
For both the cabinet and remote
systems, the vent must be
installed in a vertical orientation.
Do not mount the vent on a slant
or angle.
6. Failure to complete electrical
connections properly may
result in a damaged or non-
functional system. Follow the
wiring diagrams carefully to
ensure a proper installation.
Both vent systems require a properly grounded,
120 VAC, 60 Hz., 15 Amp electrical service.
Max. full line load is 8 amps. Always use a
dedicated circuit. Do not use same circuit that
cooktop is using.
Make all electrical connections between the vent
and blowers, then connect power to the vent as

that the back edge of the cooktop overlaps the
leading edge of the vent. (Refer back to page 4.)
Follow the cooktop manufacturer’s installation
instructions regarding securing the cooktop to
the countertop and completing the electrical
and/or gas connection.
NOTE:
Do not use a hardening
compound or caulking to
permanently seal the cooktop and
vent into place, as the units must
be easily removed for service. If
such a hardening compound is
used, removal of the units will be
at the customer’s expense.
Verifying Operation
Please read the accompanying Use & Care
Manual carefully. Important safety, service and
warranty information is contained within this
manual.
WARNINGS:
1. If the vent system is not
operational after completion of
