a gas appliance this minimum distance must be at least 65 cm (25,6“) (see
fig. C) or more importantly, check the distances specified for the gas cooking
appliance.
In the outside exhaust version, the diameter of the entire duct run must be no
smaller than the range hood connection.
In the horizontal duct run, the duct must slope slightly (around 10%) upwards,
so as to better ventilate the air outside of the room.
Avoid using angled pipes, make sure that the pipes are at least of the mini-
mum length.
Comply with the current regulations on air discharge into the atmosphere.
If a boiler, stove, fireplace, etc. that uses gas or other fuels is being used at
