Miele DA 279-4 Ventilation Hood User Manual


 
If the exhaust is ducted into an inactive
flue, the air must be expelled parallel to
the flow direction of the flue.
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent
flue, or room venting ductwork.
Seek professional advice before
connecting an exhaust hood vent to
an existing, inactive chimney or vent
flue.
Important!
If the ductwork runs through rooms,
ceilings, garages, etc. where
temperature variations exist, it may
need to be insulated to reduce
condensation.
Condensate trap
optional accessory
In some cases, a condensate trap may
also be required to collect and
evaporate any condensation which may
occur. This optional accessory is
available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and

When installing a condensate trap,

shows the venting direction.
