Cooktop Chimney Hood Installation 10 Install Ductwork To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork. IMPORTANT NOTE: Cooktop chimney ventilation hoods must exhaust to the outdoors. An 8" (203) round duct is recommended for cooktop chimney hoods. Use only rigid metal ductwork, do not use flex ducting. Decide where the ductwork will run between the wall hood and the outside. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently. Limit the number of elbows and transitions.
