cooking surface and the bottom of
hood

possible

not vent directly above your range
hood
♦ use 8” round (or 3-1/4 x 10” rectan-
gular) metal ducting
♦ use as few elbows as possible, with
no more than three 90° elbows.
♦ make sure there is at least 24” of
straight vent between any elbows
♦ use silver or duct tape to seal all
joints in the vent system
♦ use caulking to seal exterior open-
ings around the cap
♦ always use metal or aluminum ducts
for maximum airflow

sure proper airflow
For best operation, we recommend you:
DO NOT:
♦ terminate the vent system into an attic or
other enclosed area

warning
It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too
low could result in heat damage and fire hazard. Hoods mounted too high will be
hard to reach and will lose performance and efficiency.
