This canopy range hood is factory set for venting
through the roof or through the wall.
A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for
installation (not included). The hood exhaust opening is
6" (15.2 cm) round.

Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent

creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly
reduce performance.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or
wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.

A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the
hood.

If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to
the outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented
(recirculating) installation by fitting the charcoal filters
and the diverter to the range hood. Fumes and vapors
are recycled through the vent slots in the lower chimney.

Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, add the
equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the
system.

45° elbow 2.5 

ft

(0.8 m)

90° elbow 5.0 

ft

(1.5 m)

Maximum equivalent vent length is 35 ft (10.7 m).
Example vent system 

The following example falls within the maximum recommended vent length 
of 35 ft (10.7 m).

1 - 90° elbow 

= 5.0 ft (1.5 m)

1 - wall cap

= 0.0 ft (0.0 m)

8 ft (2.4 m) straight 

= 8.0 ft (2.4 m)

Length of system 

= 13.0 ft (3.9 m)

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Have a qualified technician install the range hood. It is the installer's responsibility to comply
with installation clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating
plate is located inside the range hood on the rear wall of the range hood.
