Faber Matrix Ventilation Hood User Manual


 
Version 09/05 - Page 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. If you must elbow right
away, do it as far away from the hood's exhaust opening as possible.

PLAN THE INSTALLATION
The Matrix rangehood is designed to offer wide flexibility of installations. The
rangehood can be vented through the wall or ceiling (top or rear vented), or
installed in a ductless configuration. To vent through a wall behind the hood,
a 90° elbow is used and the chimney transition (included with this hood) is
placed on top of the hoods duct. When installed ductless, the rangehood
vents out of a grate on the top of the hood (included with this hood). Ductless
installations require a Charcoal Filter, available from your dealer.
WARNING! BEFORE MAKING ANY CUTS OR HOLES FOR INSTALLATION,
DETERMINE WHICH VENTING METHOD WILL BE USED AND CAREFULLY
CALCULATE ALL MEASUREMENTS.
WARNING
Because of the weight and size of the rangehood
canopy, two or more people are needed to move
and safely install the rangehood canopy.
Failure to properly lift rangehood could result in
damage to the product or personal injury.
