Ducting Options and Examples
Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.
All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying
with the instructions in this manual, is declined.
Venting methods
The hood is equipped with a transition B for discharge of fumes to the outside (Ducting
version).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside, the hood can be
used in the Ductless (Recirculating) version. Attach a charcoal filter on the internal side of the
metal filter and the deflector F directly on the transition (Cabinet without ceiling) or at the top of
the cabinet. Fumes and vapors are recycled directly through the deflector F(Cabinet without
ceiling) or by means of a duct connected to the transition Band the deflector F.
NOTE: For ductless (Recirculating) version only: purchase the Ductless Recirculating Kit.
Minimum Duct Size (Ducting/Ductless version): 6" Round Pipe.

11
Preparation
This hood is designed to be installed inside a cabinet (only Blower unit housing) and fixed at the
bottom of the cabinet, check that the cabinet, its bottom, the hanging system of the cabinet and
the wall where cabinet is installed is strong enough to support the hood.
The inside of the cabinet should be accessible.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the
type of cabinet.
We suggest to mount the cabinet onto the wall after having installed the hood.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance.
NOTE: For ductless (recirculating) version only: Check that there is enough clearance
from ceiling and deflector once this last has been mounted to let an easy recirculation of air.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood is above the
cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
CAUTION: FOR GAS RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE
BOTTOM EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 24" (61 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM
EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 32" (81 cm) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.
