Min length of power unit structure with deflector connected = 36.6”
Min length of power unit without deflector = 32”
Max length of power unit structure = 48”
Recommended height from cook top to underside of hood = 30” for gas
25” for electric
If vented externally, 6” / 150mm
round ducting must be available for
the hood through the ceiling, in line
with the central vertical axis of the
range hood.
This unit must have it’’s own
ductwork. Do not under any
circumstances vent this unit into any
other ductwork or exhaust ducting in
the building.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DUCT
OUTLET ON THE TOP OF THE
POWER UNIT IS OFF SET FROM
CENTRE AND THEREFORE AN
ADJUSTABLE 6” ROUND BEND
WILL BE REQUIRED TO LINE THE
EXHAUST OUTLET WITH THE 6”
HOLE IN THE CEILING MOUNT
BRACKET.
Use the shortest most direct
ductwork route possible. Only use
metal ducting - plastic ducting is
generally not permitted by code. Do
not use flexible metal ducting as the
ridges of the ducting cause severe
air turbulence and will significantly
reduce the efficiency of any hood -
THIS TYPE OF DUCTING WILL
REDUCE EFFICIENCY BY 50%.
Vent hoods may interrupt the proper
flow of exhaust gases from fire-
places, gas furnaces and gas water
