This hood supports both external venting or recirculation. The type of setup
should be decided before commencing installation.
EXTERNAL VENTING
A flexible pipe is provided which allows the
cooking odours to be extracted outside. If
this is the chosen installation method
consideration to the route of the vent pipe
should be made. The mounting plate
contains a hole allowing the vent pipe to
be connected and routed through the ceiling.
If a vent pipe is to run through the ceiling a hole with a diameter of around
170mm should be made in the ceiling before installation. This would allow the
vent pipe to run through the mounting plate.
RECIRCULATION
This Cooker hood also supports the recirculation of air once
it has passed through the filters. The filtered air is then
expelled through the vent holes in the side of the chimney.
When setting the unit up in this configuration, carbon filters
should also be used to remove odours from the air. Details
of sourcing and fitting the filters can be found in the Carbon
filter section.
