Tools Needed

Parts Supplied

Insert Range Hood Venting Requirements

• Vent system must terminate to the outside (roof or side wall).
• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• Do not use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
• Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/aluminum vent is recommended.
• Do not use plastic vent.
• Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow.
• Calculate the following figures before installation:
  1. Distance from the floor to the ceiling.
  2. Distance between the floor to the countertop/stove (US Standard: 36”).
  3. Distance between the countertop/stove to the range hood (recommended 28” to 31”).
  4. Height of hood and duct cover.

For the most efficient and quiet operation:

• It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof through 6” (15 cm) round metal/aluminum vent work.
• The size of the vent should be uniform.
• 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 one elbow is used.
• Do Not install two elbows together.
• The length of the vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
• The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a damper, Do Not use damper supplied with the range hood.
• Use duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.

Height & Clearance

IMPORTANT:

• To maintain maximum airflow efficiency, a minimum of 6” round (the standard for this range hood) must be used.
• Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airflow when connecting to provided duct.
• Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions and caps.
• ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number of transitions and turns. If a long duct run is required, increase the duct size from 6” to 7 or 8”. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer. Reducing duct size will restrict airflow and decrease airflow, so reduce the duct size as far away from the opening as possible.
• If turns or transitions are required, install them as far away from the opening and as far apart, between 2, as possible.
• Minimum mount height between the range top to the hood bottom should be no less than 24”.
• Maximum mount height should be no higher than 31”
• It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance and efficiency.
• If available, also refer to the manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and the recommended hood mounting height above range.

Minimum Duct Size:

• Round – 6” minimum

Calculating vent system length

To calculate the length of the system you need, subtract the equivalent feet for each vent piece used from the recommended maximum duct run.

Venting Methods

• This power pack range hood insert is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.
• Vent work can terminate through the roof or wall. A 90° elbow is needed to vent through a wall.

IMPORTANT:

• NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.
• Use metal/aluminum duct work only.
• Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified Silver Tape or Duct Tape.
• Use caulking to seal the exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
