ALL WALL AND FLOOR OPENINGS WHERE THE RANGEHOOD IS INSTALLED
MUST BE SEALED.
This rangehood requires at least 24" of clearance between the bottom of the rangehood and the cooking
surface or countertop. This hood has been approved by UL at this distance from the cooktop.
This minimum clearance may be higher depending on local building codes. For gas cooktops and combination
ranges, a minimum of 30" is recommended and may be required.
Overhead cabinets on both sides of this unit must be a minimum of 18" above the cooking surface or
countertop. Consult the cooktop or range installation instructions given by the manufacturer before
making any cutouts.
MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION The installation of this rangehood must conform to the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280). See Electrical Requirements.
• Venting system MUST terminate outside the home.

WARNING
!
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 ecient
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 oor opening around the cap.
Flexible ductwork is not recommended. Flexible ductwork creates back pressure and air turbulence that
greatly reduces performance.
Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or oor 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.
CAUTION - To reduce risk of re and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside – Do not vent
exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
3. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.
4. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
