Venting Requirements

■ The vent system must terminate to the outdoors.■ Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.■ Do not use 4″ (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.■ Use metal vent only. A rigid metal vent is recommended. A plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.■ The length of the vent system and the number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance. For the most efficient and quiet operation:■ Use no more than three 90° elbows.■ Make sure there is a minimum of 24″ (61.0 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.■ Do not install 2 elbows together.■ Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.■ The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range hood.■ Use caulking to seal the exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.■ The size of the vent should be uniform.

Cold weather installationsAn additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold airflow and a thermal break should be installed tominimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermalbreak.The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.Makeup airLocal building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Venting MethodsTypical Internal Blower Motor System Venting InstallationsA 10″ (25.4 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The hood exhaust opening is 10″ (25.4 cm) round.NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. A flexible vent creates backpressure and air turbulence that greatly reducessperformance.The vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall.

Calculating Vent System Length

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

Vent Piece Equivalent Length
45° elbow 2.5 ft (0.8 m)
90° elbow 5.0 ft (1.5 m) 

The maximum equivalent vent lengths are: 10″ (25.4 cm) round vents – 60 ft (18.3 m)

Example vent system

The following example falls within the maximum recommended vent length.

1 – 90° elbow          = 5.0 ft (1.5 m)1 – wall cap              = 0.0 ft (0.0 m)8 ft (2.4 m) straight  = 8.0 ft (2.4 m)Length of system      = 13.0 ft (3.9 m)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSPrepare Location

■ It is recommended that the vent system be installed before the range hood is installed.■ If you are installing the optional backsplash, follow the instructions included with that product.■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for the exhaust vent.■ Check that all installation parts have been removed from the shipping carton.
