This hood can be vented vertically through upper cabinets

or horizontally through an outside wall. Ductwork is not

included.

When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air

system in accordance with local building code requirements.

If a 6” round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round

transition adaptor must be used*. Do not use less than a 6”

diameter duct.

blockages. Also, make sure dampers swing freely and

nothing is blocking the ducts.

Elbows, transitions, wall and roofcaps, etc.,

present additional resistance to airflow and are equivalent

to a section of straight duct longer than their actual

physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add

the equivalent lengths of all transitions and adaptors plus

the length of all straight duct sections. The charts on the

following pages show you how to calculate total equivalent

length of some typical ducts.

IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to-round

transition adaptor is used, the bottom

corners of the damper will have to be cut

to fit, using the tin snips, in order to allow

free movement of the damper. Equivalent

lengths of duct pieces are based on actual

tests and reflect requirements for good

venting performance with any hood.
