[. . . ] 15 or 20 A Dimensions Weight: 30" Model 34 lbs - 36" Model 38, 5 lbs Diameter of Transition 4" 3/4 Figure 1 Diameter of exhaust Duct required 4" 3/4 Considerations before installing Hood 1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible. CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only. If allowed in your area, use metallic flex ducting only to connect rigid duct directly to transitions. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house. Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke. We recommends the hood be installed 18, 5" minimum above an electric cooktop or 25, 6" minimum above a gas cooktop .

In horizontal runs, the duct must be slightly slanted (about 10°) and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the outside. A non-return smoke valve is supplied as an optional to be mounted on the coupling flange . B Recycling version Figure 2 The air is filtered through a carbon filter and recycled into the room. If the hood has no filter ask for one from the technical assistance service or the manufacturing company, specifying the hood model. To install the filter, insert it in the place provided and use the two hooks D to fasten it (Figure 4). The filtered air is discharged above the wall cabinet through the baffle E , to be fastened by means of two screws provided directly on the vertical of the outlethole of the hood (if necessary fit a duct Ø120mm from the coupling flange to the upper edge of the hole provided on the top side of the cupboard (Figure 3).

Perform the same operations on the inner left side. Use screws F (4. 5x16) to fasten the hood to the cabinet (Figure 6). While mounting the hood on the wall cabinet be sure once the hood has been fastened, to allow the wiring compartment to be easily and safely reachable, in order to make eventual safety inspections and/or maintenance operations. Box adjustment Figure 5 The hood can be installed in cabinets with different depths; the front of the box must always be in line with the cabinet. For alignment, adjust the back stops of the box.
