Installation of Ducting for Proper Operation:
Proper installation of ducting is extremely important for optimal performance of your ventilation system. It is a basic
requirement that the kitchen is provided with an air intake to ensure good air circulation and, therefore, proper operation
of the hood. Without this incoming air, a depression could form that would reduce the efficiency of the ventilation
system.
• Be sure to follow local building codes for electrical, structural, general HVAC, and make-up air requirements.
• If duct shape is changed along path (round to square), the cross-sectional area must not be reduced.
• The duct run should be kept under 30 feet for a straight run. For every 90 degree turn in the duct run, subtract 5 feet
from the total (25’ for a duct run with 1 elbow, 20’ for a duct run with 2 elbows, and so on). Longer runs will result in
decreased performance and possible noise concerns.
• Avoid sharp-angled turns. Use smooth gradual turns, such as adjustable elbows or 45-degree angled turns.
• Airflow must not be restricted at the end of the duct run.
• A backflow damper is not provided. It should be sourced locally and sized for your specific duct work.
• Duct should terminate to an outdoor space above the roof line or outside a side wall of the building. Do not
terminate the run into an attic or chimney.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Electrical Specifications:
This hood is designed to be plugged into a dedicated 3-
prong ANSI or Non-GFCI outlet – 120Volt, 60Hz, 1Ph,
10amp. min.
Outlet location: Confirm with local building codes for
accessibility requirements. The outlet may be
positioned above the hood shell to provide access for
the cord along the duct exhaust. Ensure the outlet will
not be obstructed by the duct work. The power cord will
extend up to 36” from the top of the liner.
Depending on specific installation conditions,
access to the outlet may be difficult.
If an appropriate outlet is not available or is inconvenient
due to the specific installation, the power cord may be
removed at the liner’s junction box, and the hood may
be direct wired to a dedicated non-GFCI 120V, 60Hz,
1Ph, 10amp min circuit. Use 14-2 MC shielded cable or
equivalent, unless directed otherwise by local building
codes.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury, observe the following:
• Use only metal ductwork. Do not use flexible or corrugated duct.
