PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Step 1: EXHAUST-AIR MODE

D

Exhaust air should neither be directed into a smoke or

exhaust flue that iscurrently used for other purposes, not

into a shaft that is used for ventilating rooms in which

stoves or fireplaces are also located.
Exhaust air may be discharged in accordance with

official and statutory regulations only (e.g. national

building regulations).
Local authority regulations must be observed when

discharging air into smoke or exhaust flues that are not

otherwise in use.

D

When the extractor hood is operated in exhaust-air

mode simultaneously with a different burner which

also makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil

or coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water

boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an

adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by

the burner for combustion.
Safe operation is possible provided that the underpressure

in the room where the burner is installed does not exceed

4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through

non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via the

air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical

measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.
If the air intake is inadequate, there is a risk of

poisoning from combustion gases which are drawn

back into the room.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee

that the limiting value will not be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the

combined ventilation system for the entire household must

be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to

the use of cooking appliances, such as hobs and ovens.

The fan must be attached at least 78

” from the

extractor hood.

When attaching the outer wall fan, ensure that it is

accessible for maintenance and repairs.

The plug-and-socket connections of the electric

cables must be located inside the building, according to

local codes.

Do not reduce the 10” diameter of the pipes

connected to the extractor hood.

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Step 2: PREPARING THE WALL

The wall must be flat and perpendicular.

Ensure that the wall is capable of providing a firm hold

for mounting screws and plugs.
