DUCTING
Aminimum of 6" round or 3-1/4" x lO"rectangular
duct must be used to maintain maximum air flow
efficiency.
Alwaysuserigid-typemetalductsonly.
Flexibleductscouldrestrictair flowbyupto 50%.
Alsouse calculation (onright) to compute total
availableduct run when using elbows, transitions
andcaps.
ALWAYS,when possible,reduce the number of
transitions and turns. If long duct run is required,
increase duct size from 6" to 7 or 8". Ifa reducer
is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake
reducer. Reduceduct size as far away from open-
ing as possible.
If turns or transitions arerequired:
Install as far away from opening and asfar
apart, between 2, as possible.

INSTALLATION
DUCTING
NEVERexhaust air or terminate duct work into spacesbetween walls, crawl spaces,ceiling, attics or
garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.
UseMetal ductwork only.
Fastenall connectionswith sheet metal screws and tape alljoints w/certified Silver Tapeor DuctTape.

1.Determinehood height, center, mark, level andhang hoodto wall through mounting keyholes on back.
2. Installduct work and electrical.
3. Centerand fasten bracket for upper telescopic duct cover onto the wall.
4. Slip upper and lower telescopic duct covers onto top of blower and screw in place.
5. Secure hood towall studs whenever possible; use appropriatewall fasteners & hardware
(notsupplied) for hollow drywall, tiled, concrete, brick wall applications for mounting hood..

INSTALLATION
DUCTLESS CONVERSION
Ductlessconversion is intendedfor applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be
installed.When converted, the hoodfunctions as a "purifying" hood rather than an exhaust hood.
Fumesand exhaust from cooking is drawn and filtered bya set of optional CarbonFilters.The air
is then purified and re-circulated back within the home.
Werecommend to ALWAYSexhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing
new duct work, if possible.The hoodis most effective and efficient as an Exhaustunit. Onlywhen
the exhaust option is not possible shouldyou recourse to converting the hood into a "purifying"unit.
Whenconverted to be a "purifying" unit, a set of Carbon Filtersare required on topof its standard
Metal Filter set. Orderaccording to its Part number below. Thestandard Metal Filtersare intended
to capture residue from cooking and the optional CarbonFilters help to purify fumes exhausted
from cooking for re-circulation.
CarbonFilters (Required)
1.PurchaseductlessCarbonFiltersasfollows:
Hood Model: Part No. Filters in pkg.

2. Removemetal filters on hood.Clip
carbonfilters onto each filter.
3. Re-install metal filters.
4. Turnon filter change indicator on
control panel.
5. Carbon Filters must be replaced after
every 120 hours of use (or approximately
every 2 to 3 months basedon the average
of 1-2 hrs. of dailycooking time). The
microprocessor in the controls when set,
will count usage time and indicatewhen
carbonfilter replacement is required.

Ducting
1. Install a 6" straight pipe and a "T" connector/
or a90 elbow to divert air through louvers on
duct cover.
