DUCTING
A minimum of 6” round ducting must be used to
maintain maximum air fl ow effi ciency.
Always use rigid type metal ducts only. Flexible
ducts could restrict air fl ow by up to 50%.
Use calculation worksheet to compute total duct
work.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number of
transitions and turns. If a long duct run is required,
increase duct size from 6” to 7” or 8”.
If turns or transitions are required: Install as far
away from opening and as far apart, between 2,
as possible.
36”
24” min.
32” max.
Mounting height from top of cooking surface to
bottom of hood should be no less than 24” and no
more than 32”.
It is important to install the hood at the proper
mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could
result in heat damage and fi re hazard while hoods
mounted too high will be hard to reach and will
lose performance and effi ciency.
If available, also refer to range manufacturer’s
height clearance requirements and recommended
hood mounting height above range. Always check
your local codes for any differences.
