INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS
The Axia chimney is adjustable and designed to meet varying
ceiling heights.
FIGURE 2
illustrates the standard installation
for the Axia which requires the canopy to be mounted 24"
above the countertop.
FIGURE 2
CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if ducted with 6" round
ductwork. Calculate the length of the ductwork by adding
the equivalent feet in
FIGURE 3

system. An example is given in
FIGURE 4
. For best results,
use no more than three 90° elbows. Make sure that there
is a minimum of 24" of straight duct between elbows if more
than one is used. Do not install two elbows together.
