General Information The hood is equipped with an internal blower. It is not designed for use with a
remote blower.

grease, and smoke. This hood has been approved for installations as low as 30”

be inconvenient for tall people and large cooking vessels.

mm) tall. In order for the upper chimney section to meet the ceiling (or surface
above), the highest allowable ceiling height is 9 1/2’ (3 m)(assumes the hood is
