• An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and
insects from entering the home.
• Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (305 mm) from the ground
or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as
flowers, rocks or bushes, snow line, etc.).
• Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect
indoors, which may result in:
[] Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper,
carpets, etc.
[] Housecleaning problems and health problems.
