ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

• A 120 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required.

VENTING REQUIREMENTS

This canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.

A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The

hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and

air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a

wall, a 90° elbow is needed.

Rear discharge

A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.

For Non-Vented (recirculating) Installations

If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the outside, the hood

can be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, fitting a charcoal filter and

the deflector. Fumes and vapors are recycled through the top grille.

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.

45° elbow 2.5 ft (0.8 m)

90° elbow 5.0 ft (1.5 m)

Maximum equivalent vent length is 35 ft (10.7 m).
