VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT
Consult local building codes and/or local agencies, before starting, to ensure that hood and duct installation will meet local requirements.
Hood blower speeds should be variable to reduce noise and loss of heated or air conditioned household air when maximum ventilation is not required.
Normally, the maximum blower speed is only required when grilling or using the self-cleaning cycle.
If a custom hood canopy contains any
combustible
materials
(eg a wood covering) it must be a minimum of 30” (762mm) above the cooking surface.
Due to a high volume of ventilation air, a source of make-up air (outside replacement air) that complies with local codes and regulations is required.
