The length of vent system and number of elbows should
be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
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.
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 roof or wall cap has
a damper, do not use damper supplied with the range hood.

Cold Weather Installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize
backward cold air flow and a thermal break should be installed to
minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent
system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal
break.

Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems
when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of
air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.
Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in
your area.

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates
back pressure and air turbulence that gently reduces
performance.
