(recirculating) installations.
 
Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.
 
Do not use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
 
Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or 
metal foil vent is not recommended.
 
The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a 
minimum to provide efficient performance.
For the Most Efficient and Quiet Operation:
 
Use no more than three 90° elbows.
 
Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent between 
the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
 
Do not install 2 elbows together.
 
Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
 
The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a 
damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range hood.
 
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
 
The size of the vent should be uniform.
