Also, make sure dampers swing freely andnothing is blocking the ducts.Exhaust connection:The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with astandard 8.3 x 25.4 cm (3¼” x 10”) rectangular duct.If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-roundtransition adaptor must be used. Do not use less than a15.2 cm (6”) diameter duct.Maximum duct length:For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of8.3 x 25.4 cm (3¼” x 10”) rectangular or 15.2 cm (6”)diameter round duct should not exceed 42.7 m(140 feet).Elbows, transitions, wall and roof caps,etc., present additional resistance to airflow and areequivalent to a section of straight duct which is longerthan their actual physical size. When calculating the totalduct length, add the equivalent lengths of all transitionsand adaptors plus the length of all straight duct sections.The chart below shows you how to calculate totalequivalent ductwork length using the approximatemeters (feet) of equivalent length of some typical ducts.5Installation Instructions
