2. SELECT INSTALLATION TYPE
NOTE: During the installation, protect countertop and/or cooktop.
Plan where and how the ductwork will be installed.
Install proper-sized ductwork, elbows and roof or wall cap depending on the type of installation. For vertical discharge, use 6” round
or 3¼” x 10” ductwork and for horizontal discharge use 3¼” x 10” ductwork only. Use metal foil duct tape to seal duct joints.
The minimum hood distance above cooktop is 24” (30” over a gas range). A maximum of 30” above cooktop is recommended
for best capture of cooking impurities.
Distances over 30” are at the installer and users discretion providing that ceiling height and decorative flue length allow it.
