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.

Venting Methods

This island hood is factory set for venting through the roof.

A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation

(not included). The hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.

NOTE: 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.

For Non-Vented (Recirculating) Installations

If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the

outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating)

version, fitting a charcoal filter and the deflector. Fumes and

vapors are recycled through the top grille. To order, see the

“Assistance or Service” section.

NOTE: If codes permits, wall venting can be an option

for 2-story homes.

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.

Vent Piece 6" (15.2 cm) Round

45° elbow 2.5 ft (0.8 m)

90° elbow 5 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 ft (1.5 m)

1 - wall cap = 0 ft (0 m)

8 ft (2.4 m) straight = 8 ft (2.4 m)

Length of system = 13 ft (3.9 m)

Electrical Requirements

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in

conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA

70 (latest edition), or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian

Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition)

and all local codes and ordinances.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used,

it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine

that the ground path is adequate.
