CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if ducted with 3 1/4"
by 10" rectangular duct and 60 equivalent feet if ducted with
9" round ductwork. Calculate the length of the ductwork by
adding the equivalent feet in FIGURE 3 for each piece of duct
in the 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.
Remote blowers require 9" round duct.
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.

PLAN THE INSTALLATION
This rangehood can be installed as either ducted or ductless.
The blower can be vented through the wall or ceiling. To
vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is used. When installed
ductless, the rangehood vents out of grates on the sides of
the chimney. Ductless installations require a Ductless Kit,
available from your dealer.
This rangehood can be used with an optional remote blower.
If a remote blower is used, then the internal blower must be
removed and discarded. Both blowers cannot be used together.
The remote blower connects to the rangehood using a separate
wiring cable not supplied with the rangehood. The wiring cable
should be installed at the same time as the ductwork.
WARNING! BEFORE MAKING ANY CUTS OR HOLES
