Venting
requirements
Fire Hazard
Terminate venting syslem to the
outside.
Do Not terminate the vent in an
attic or other enclosed space.
Failure to follow these mstructions
could result in a fire.
Ductwork needed for lnstallatlon Is not
included. Wall or roofcaps used must
have back-dratl damper.
DetermIne which outside venting
method needs to be used Note: If anon-
venting (recirculating] installation IS
desired. follow installation instructions on
the back cover.
The length of ductwork and number of
elbows should be kept lo a mlnimum to
provide efficient performance. The size
of the ductwork should be uniform. Do
Not install two elbows together. Use duct
lope to seal all joints in duct system.
Ductwork can terminate either
through the roof or wall. Figures 3-5 show
common venting methods and what
types of materials are needed Use
caulking to seal exterior wall or roof
opening around exhaust hood.
