VENTING REQUIREMENTS
Determine which venting method is best for your applica-
tion. Ductwork can extend either through the wall or the
roof.
The length of the ductwork and the number of elbows
should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient perfor-
mance. The size of the ductwork should be uniform. Do
not install two elbows together. Use duct tape to seal all
jointsintheductworksystem. Usecaulkingtosealexterior
wall or floor opening around the cap.
Flexible ductwork is not recommended. If it is used,
each foot of flexible ductwork used is equivalent to
two feet of straight metal ductwork when calculating
the ductrun length. Thus, a flexible elbow equals two
standard elbows.
Makesurethere is proper clearance within the wall or floor
for exhaust duct before making cutouts. Do not cut a joist
or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must
be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.

RECIRCULATING INSTALLATIONS
For recirculating installations (FIGURE 4), Charcoal Filters are necessary.
Removeallthree grease filters andsetaside. Attachone charcoal filter toeachend
oftheblower. Eachcharcoalfilterattachestotheblackgridonthesideoftheblower.
Rotate the filter clockwise to install and counterclockwise to remove (FIGURE 4A).
Replaceallthreegreasefilters. Recirculating installationsalso requiresomeduct
work to divert the air out of the cabinet. The duct work must not terminate inside
the cabinet. The plastic vent grate supplied with the rangehood (FIGURE 4B)
can be used to cover the duct opening.
PLAN YOUR DUCTWORK
The Inca HC requires 6" round
ductwork. To ensure that the blower
performs to its highest possible capac-
ity, ductwork should be as short and
straight as possilbe.
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if
ducted with the required minimum of 6"
round duct. Calculate the length of the
ductwork by adding the equivalent feet in
FIGURE A for each piece of duct in the
system AnexampleisgiveninFIGUREB.
For best results, use no more than three
90°elbows. Make sure that there is a
minimum of 24" of straight duct between
elbows if more than one is used. Do not
install two elbows together.
