Stay clear of fan when motor is running. * SEVERE INJURY - Range hood may have very shape edges. Please wear protective gloves if it is necessary to remove any parts for installing, cleaning or servicing. B. IMPORTANT: MUST MEASURE FOLLOWING STEPS BEFORE INSTALLATION. The Duct covers are adjustable and designed to meet varying ceiling height. The duct covers can be adjusted for ceiling between Sft and 9ft depending on the distance between the bottom of the hood and the cook top). For shorter ceiling, have the duct cover cut at a sheet metal shop. For higher ceiling then buy an extra upper chimney which would replace the original one that came with the hood. 1) Distance from the floor to the ceiling. 2) Distance between the floor to the counter top.-'stove. 3) Distance between he counter.■'stove and range hood Recommended 2$" to 32"). 4) Height of range hood and chimney. 5) Height of the range hood installation. Page 5 C. Venting Methods This range hood can be installed as either ducted or ductless. WARNING: BEFORE MAKING ANY CUTS OR HOLES FOR INSTALLATION, DETERMINE WHICH VENTING METHOD WILL BE USED AND CAREFULLY CALCULATE ALL MEASUREMENTS. (a). Outdoor Venting methods for outdoor venting through the roof or wall only) The hood is equipped with a transition "duct set" for discharge of fumes to the outdoor. Vent work can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90 degree elbow is used. IMPORTANT: - Vent system must terminate to the outside (through roof or side wall),unless using a ductless recirculating kit (charcoal filter). - Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or any other enclosed area. - Recommended to use metal /flexible aluminum vent only. - Never use plastic vent. - Always Keep the duct clean to ensure the proper airflow. - NEVE R exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside. - Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap. - Do not use 4" (10.2cm)laundry-type wall caps. - Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow. - It is recom mended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof through 6" (15cm) round metal .-'aluminium vent work. The size of the vent should be uniform. - Use no more than three 90 elbows and do not install two elbows together. - Make sure there is a minium of 24"(61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used. The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient perfonuance. - The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a damper. Do Not use damper supplied with the range hood. - Use duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system. - Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified Silver Tape or Duct Tape. Calculate the duct run length: If ducted with the required minimum of 6" round duct work, the ductrun should not exceed 35 equivalent feet. Calculate the length of the duct work by adding the equivalent feet as below for each piece of duct in the system. 1. Use no more than three 90* Elbow. 2. Make sure that there is a minim um of 24" of straight duct between elbows if more then one is used. 3. DO NOT install two elbows together. 4. If you m ust elbow right away, do it as far awtay from the hood's exhaust opening as possible. 45* Elbow - 3.0 feet 9 Feet Straight Duct 9.0 feet 90* Elbow - 5.0 feet 2-90* Elbow 10.0 feet 90* Rat Elbow - 12.0 feet Wall Cap 0.0 feet Wall Cap - 0.0 feet Total System 19.0 feet Example 1.
