11 INSTALLATION MOUNTING NET WI DTH Min: 24 Max 32 MOUNTING Minimum mount height between range top to hood bottom should be no less than 24 (inches). Maximum mount height should be no higher than 32 (inches). It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance and efficiency. If available, also refer to the range manufacturer s height clearance requirements and recommended hood mounting height above range. Always check your local codes for any differences. Ducting A minimum 3 ¼ x 10 rectangular duct must be used to maintain maximum air flow efficiency. Always use rigid type metal ducts only. Flexible ducts could restrict air flow by up to 50%. Always when possible, reduce the number of transitions and turns. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer. Reduce duct size as far away from opening as possible. If turns or transitions are required; install as far away from opening and as far apart as possible. Never exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceilings, attics or garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside, unless using the recirculating kit. Use single wall rigid metal duct work only. Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified Silver Tape or Duct Tape. 11
