ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
VICTORY range hoods

• Duct system must terminate to the outside (roof or side wall).
• DO NOT terminate the duct system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
• Use metal/aluminum duct only. Rigid metal/aluminum vent is recommended.
• DO NOT use plastic duct.
• Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airow.
• Calculate the following gures before installation:
1. Distance from the oor to the ceiling.
2. Distance from countertop/stove to range hood (recommend* 30” to 36”).
3. Height of hood and duct cover.
For the most e󰀩cient & quiet operation:
• A distance of 30” to 36” is recommended* between stove top and the bottom of range hood.
• It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof through 10” or bigger round metal/alumi-
num duct work.
• The size of the duct should be uniform.
• Use no more than three 90° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of straight duct between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
• DO NOT install two elbows together.
• The length of duct system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide e󰀩cient performance.
• The duct system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a damper, DO NOT use damper (if supplied) on top of the
range hood.
• Use aluminum foil tape to seal all joints in the duct system.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap. USE 10” ROOF OR WALL VENT CAP MINIMUM.
IMPORTANT:
• A minimum of a 10” round duct (standard for this range hood) must be used to maintain maximum airow
e󰀩ciency.
• Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airow when connecting to provided
duct.
• Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions
and caps.
• ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns in the duct run. If a long duct run is
required, increase the duct size from 10” to 12”. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pan-
cake reducer. Reducing the duct size will restrict airow and decrease e󰀩ciency.
• If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away from opening and as far apart, between 2, as pos-
sible.
• Minimum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no less than 30-inch*.
• Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no higher than 36-inch*.
• It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat
damage and re hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance
and e󰀩ciency.
• If available, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended hood
mounting height above range.
Minimum Duct Size:
• Round - 10”
* Due to different ceiling height congurations, recommended height may not be applicable.

VENTING REQUIREMENTS

To calculate the length of the duct system you require, subtract the equivalent feet for each “Duct
piece” (Table Below) used in the system from the “Recommended maximum run” (Table Below). The
longest duct run that is acceptable (if completely straight) is 50 feet. The number of duct pieces (el-
bow, transition, etc.) installed in your duct run will determine the maximum length the duct run can be.
Please refer to the example below:
Duct Run Calculation:
Recommended maximum run
10” round rigid duct 50 ft
Duct piece deduction
Each 90º elbow used 9 ft
Each 45º elbow used 5 ft
Each round to rectangle transition
used
7 ft
Side wall cap with damper 7 ft
Roof cap 7 ft
Duct Run Calcuation example:
One roof cap, two 90º elbows, and one 45º elbow
used:
7ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 30ft used.
The above duct pieces used are equivalent to 30ft
of a straight duct run. Subtract 30ft from the al-
lowable 50ft. The remaining distance of 20ft is the
longest that the straight ducting (in addition to the
vent pieces) can be.
