and any other air-handling device that

windows in the room should be closed.
Support Requirements

installations must be permanent and
stationary. The supporting structure
usually consists of a base cabinet and
supporting work surface.
Exhaust Requirements
The exhaust duct connection has been designed for 11"
nominal duct (11.00" OD) to allow for minimum static
pressure loss while operating at 100 fpm face velocities.
The 11" diameter exhaust duct also allows for proper
transport velocities away from the hood in the 1000
fpm to 2500 fpm range. The proper exhaust volume
and static pressure loss are listed next for each hood
model:
