Mounting your Extractor
IMPORTANT:
The extractor is intended to be mounted directly to
the ceiling using fixings appropriate for the ceiling.
Ensure that there is adequate ceiling strength and
supports at the fixing points; if in doubt, consult a
joiner or electrician.
When the extractor is to be installed above an electric hob,
the minimum distance between the hob and extractor must
exceed 600mm (650mm is recommended).
When the extractor is to be installed above a gas hob, the
minimum distance between the hob and extractor must
exceed 700mm (750mm is recommended).
If the instructions provided with your gas hob state that the
required distance between the hob and extractor must be
greater than 700mm, then that is the distance that should be
observed; this is a legal requirement and may lead to your hob
being disconnected from the gas supply and the installation
being reported to RIDDOR (The height should be measured
from the top of the burners).
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED
WITH THE GAS HOB, THE MINIMUM DISTANCE
BETWEEN THE HOB AND EXTRACTOR MUST BE AT
LEAST 760mm.
The width of any hob must not be greater than the width of
the extractor installed above it. Fig. 3
Ducting and Ventilation
We recommend the use of ducting with a diameter of
150mm. Ducting with diameters of 100mm or 120mm may
be used, but performance will be reduced.
