PLAN THE DUCTWORK
The Scirocco downdraft system is designed to offer wide flex-
ibility in ducting. The interior blower can be ducted in four
different directions; down, left, right or back using a 3 1/4"
X 10" rectangular vent. The remote blower can be ducted
in three directions; down, left or right using a 10" round vent.
FIGURES 1 and 2 illustrate venting options.
The remote blower requires a separate wiring cable that should
be installed at the same time that the ductwork is installed. For
best results, 10" duct is recommended for the remote blower.
A damper plate is included in the box with the remote blower
and must be attached over the opening of the front of the
downdraft blower box. Remote blower can be mounted on
either an outside wall or the roof of the home.
FIGURE 5 shows the ductwork cutout dimensions for the
internal blower model only. The remote blower connects us-
ing a 10" round duct. The location of the cutout for this duct
will depend upon your specific installation.
FIGURE 5
CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The ductwork length should not exceed 35 equivalent feet for 3
1/4" X 10" duct, or 55 equivalent feet for 9" or 10" round duct.
Calculate the length of the ductwork by adding the equivalent
feet listed in FIGURE 3 for each piece of duct in the complete
system. An example is given in FIGURE 4.
For best results, use no more than three 90° elbows. Make
sure that there is a minimum of 24" of straight duct between
elbows if more than one is used. Do not install two elbows
together. Round duct is recommended instead of rectangular
duct especially if elbows are needed. For internal blower
models, rectangular duct should be transitioned to 6" round
as soon as possible.
