DUCT FITTINGS

This Hood Must Use an

8″ Round Duct. It Can

Transition to a

3-1/4″ x 12″ Duct.

Use this chart to compute

maximum permissible lengths

for duct runs to outdoors.

NOTE: Do not exceed maximum

permissible equivalent lengths!

Maximum duct length:

100 foot for range hoods.

Flexible ducting:

If flexible metal ducting is used,

all the equivalent feet values in

the table should be doubled.

The flexible metal duct should

be straight and smooth and

extended as much as possible.

DO NOT use flexible plastic

ducting.

NOTE: Any home ventilation

system, such as a ventilation hood,

may interrupt the proper flow of

combustion air and exhaust

required by fireplaces, gas

furnaces, gas water heaters and

other naturally vented systems.

To minimize the chance of

interruption of such naturally

vented systems, follow the

heating equipment manufacturer’s

guidelines and safety standards

such as those published by NFPA

and ASHRAE.

*Actual length of straight duct plus duct fitting

equivalent. Equivalent length of duct pieces are

based on actual tests conducted by GE Evaluation

Engineering and reflect requirements for good

venting performance with any ventilation hood.
