Venting

requirements

Fire Hazard

Terminate venting syslem to the

outside.

Do Not terminate the vent in an

attic or other enclosed space.

Failure to follow these mstructions

could result in a fire.

Ductwork needed for lnstallatlon Is not

included. Wall or roofcaps used must

have back-dratl damper.

DetermIne which outside venting

method needs to be used Note: If anon-

venting (recirculating] installation IS

desired. follow installation instructions on

the back cover.

The length of ductwork and number of

elbows should be kept lo a mlnimum to

provide efficient performance. The size

of the ductwork should be uniform. Do

Not install two elbows together. Use duct

lope to seal all joints in duct system.

Ductwork can terminate either

through the roof or wall. Figures 3-5 show

common venting methods and what

types of materials are needed Use

caulking to seal exterior wall or roof

opening around exhaust hood.
