Venting methods
This island canopy range hood is
factory set for venting through the roof
or wall. For non-vented (recirculating)
installations, see "Non-Vented
(Recirculating) Kits" on back page.
Vent system needed for installation is
not included. 3-1/4" x 10" (8.3 crn x
25 crn) rectangular, 7" (178 crn) round,
8" (20.3 crn) round or 9" (22.9 crn)
round vent may be used.The hood
exhaust opening is 3-1/4" x 10"
(8.3 crn x 25 crn).
Ventwork can terminate either through
the roof or wall. To vent through a
wall, a 90° elbow is needed.
The vent system length should not
exceed the lengths shown in the chart
below.

= 0 ft. (0 m)
= 13 ft. (4 m)
Note: Flexible vent is Not
recommended.
If it is used, each foot of flexible vent
used is equivalent to two feet (61 cm)
of straight metal vent when
calculating the vent system length.
(Example: A flexible elbow equals two
standard elbows.)
