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. If it is used,

each foot of flexible ductwork used is equivalent to

two feet of straight metal ductwork when calculating

the ductrun length. Thus, a flexible elbow equals two

standard elbows.

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.

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

Ductwork.

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

ordinances. 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

• 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 nec-

essary. 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, ELECTRI-

CAL SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING: Use this unit only in the manner intended

by the manufacturer. If you have any questions, 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, ELECTRI-

CAL 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 Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not dam-

age 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

For residential use only.

Cold Weather installations

An 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.
