VENTING REQUIREMENTS

Determine which venting method is best for your application.

Ductwork can extend either through the wall or the roof.

The length of the ductwork and the number of elbows should

be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

The size of the ductwork should be uniform. Do not install

two elbows together. Use duct tape to seal all joints in the

ductwork system. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or floor

opening around the cap.

Flexible ductwork is not recommended. Flexible ductwork

creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly

reduces performance.

Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor

for exhaust duct before making cutouts. Do not cut a joist

or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must

be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed

TO PAGE 4.

WARNING - To Reduce The Risk Of Fire, Use Only Metal Ductwork.

• Venting system MUST terminate outside the

home.

• DO NOT terminate the ductwork in an attic or

other enclosed space.

• DO NOT use 4" laundry-type wall caps.

• Flexible-type ductwork is not recommended.

• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and

ventilation air.

• Failure to follow venting requirements may result

in a fire.

This appliance should be connected directly to the fused

disconnect (or circuit breaker) through flexible, armored

or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable. Allow some slack

in the cable so the appliance can be moved if servicing is

ever necessary. A UL Listed, 1/2" conduit connector must

be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the

appliance and at the junction box).

When making the electrical connection, cut a 1 1/4" hole

in the wall. A hole cut through wood must be sanded until

smooth. A hole through metal must have a grommet.

WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, do

not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR

INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: Use this unit only

in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any ques-

tions, contact the manufacturer.

Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel

and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from

being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting

means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning

device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust

Hazardous or Explosive Materials and Vapors.

WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK,

OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: Installation

Work And Electrical Wiring Must Be Done By Qualified Person(s)

In Accordance With All Applicable Codes And Standards, Including

Fire-Rated Construction.

Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of

gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent

backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline

and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire

Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heat-

ing, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the

local code authorities.

When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical

wiring and other hidden utilities.

Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

WARNING

• Electrical ground is required on this rangehood.

• If cold water pipe is interrupted by plastic,

nonmetallic gaskets or other materials, DO NOT

use for grounding.

• DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.

• DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or grounding

circuit. A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit

could result in electrical shock.

• Check with a qualified electrician if you are in

doubt as to whether the rangehood is properly

grounded.

• Failure to follow electrical requirements may result

in a fire.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

A 120 volt, 60 Hz AC-only electrical supply is required on a

separate 15 amp fused circuit. A time-delay fuse or circuit

breaker is recommended. The fuse must be sized per local

codes in accordance with the electrical rating of this unit as

specified on the serial/rating plate located inside the unit

near the field wiring compartment. THIS UNIT MUST BE

CONNECTED WITH COPPER WIRE ONLY. Wire sizes must

conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition, and all local codes and ordi-

nances. Wire size and connections must conform with the

rating of the appliance. Copies of the standard listed above

may be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

Batterymarch Park

Quincy, Massachusetts 02269

For residential use only.

Cold Weather installations

additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize

backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic 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. The break should be as close as

possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion

of the house.

CAUTION

- To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust

air, be sure to duct air outside – Do not vent exhaust air into

spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces,

or garages.
