Zephyr ZGE-E36AS Ventilation Hood User Manual

Ductless recirculation is intended for applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be installed.
When converted, the hood functions as a recirculating hood rather than an exhaust hood. Fumes and exhaust
from cooking are drawn and fi ltered by an optional charcoal fi lter. The air is then purifi ed and recirculated back
within the home.
We recommend to ALWAYS exhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing new duct
work, if possible. The hood is most effective and effi cient as an exhaust hood. Only when the exhaust option
is not possible should you recourse to converting the hood into a recirculating hood.
When converted to be a recirculating hood, a charcoal fi lter is required on top of the decorative mesh fi lter.
Order according to its part number below. The decorative mesh fi lter is intended to capture residue from
cooking and the optional charcoal fi lter helps to purify fumes exhausted from cooking for recirculation.

4. In order to recirculate the air properly, a return air vent must be installed to
allow recycled air to be returned to the kitchen, Fig. 14. Ducting must be run
from the blower to the return air vent. The return air vent can be positioned
on top of the cabinet or in a soffi t/ceiling.

every 3 to 4 months based on an average daily use of 1 hour of cooking time)
The microprocessor in the controls, when set, will elapse and count usage
time and indicate when charcoal fi lter replacement is required every 120 hrs.
