Minimum mount height between range top to hood  
bottom should be no less than 30”.  
Maximum mount height should be no higher than  
36”.  
It is important to install the hood at the proper  
mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could  
result in heat damage and re hazard; while hoods  
mounted too high will be hard to reach and will  
lose its performance and efciency.  
If available, also refer range manufacturer’s height  
clearance requirements and recommended hood  
mounting height above range.

DUCTING  
A minimum of 8” round ducting must be used to  
maintain maximum air ow efciency.  
Always use rigid type metal ducts only. Flexible  
ducts could restrict air ow by up to 50%.  
Also use calculation (on page 5) to compute total  
available duct run when using elbows, transitions  
and caps.  
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or  
transitions and turns. If long duct run is required,  
increase duct size.  
If turns or transitions are required; install as far  
away from hood duct output and as far apart,  
between the two as possible.

WARNING FIRE HAZARD  
NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages.  
All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.  
Use metal ductwork only.  
Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certied Silver Tape or Duct Tape.
