tertop/stove (recommend* 28” to 31”).
Distance between the countertop/stove
to the range hood.

It is recommended that the range hood be
vented vertically through the roof through 6”
(15.2 cm) or bigger round metal/aluminum
vent work.
The size of the vent should be uniform.
Use no more than three 90° elbows.
Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61
cm) of straight vent between the elbows if
more than one elbow is used.
DO NOT install two elbows together.
The length of vent system and number of
elbows should be kept to a minimum to pro
vide efficient performance.
The vent system must have a damper. If
roof or wall cap has a damper, DO NOT
use damper (if supplied) on top of the range
