installation Preparation
ADVANCE PLANNING
Ductwork Planning
* Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
* Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.
e Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible.
For satisfacto Wperformance, duct run should
not exceed lO0 equivalent length for any duct
configurations.
* Refer to "Duct Fittings" chart to compute
the maximum permissible length for duct runs
to the outdoors.
CAUTION: To,-ed.ce,-,s.of.,e..dto
properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside-Do not
vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings
or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

• Use metal duct_,vork. These hoods must use 8" round
duct. It can transition to 3-1/4" x 12", reducing the
maximum equivalent duct length to 75 feet.
• Install a wall cap with damper or roof cap at the
exterior opening° Order the wall or roof cap
and any transition needed in advance.
Wall Framing for Adequate Support
* This vent hood is heax T. Adequate structural support
must be provided. The hood must be secured to
vertical studs in the wall, or to a horizontal support.
See page 9.
* We strongly recommend that the vent hood with duct
cover be on site before final fiaming and wall
finishing. This will also help to accurately locate
the ductwork and electrical service.
