It is important to follow the installation instructions.
By following these instructions for the installation, use and care of your Harvey Norman
under cupboard rangehood will ensure many years of safe and reliable operation.
Gas regulations require different heights for different brands of rangehoods. HNE & HNR
Harvey Norman Rangehoods can be fitted 600 mm above the top of the highest burner of a
gas hotplate. We recommend 700 to 800mm above the hotplate for optimum performance,
and a minimum height of 750mm above Induction Hotplates.
The Harvey Norman HNE & HNR rangehoods are all meant to be put into cupboards over
hotplates and can vary in height due to the kitchen design. The rangehood can be installed
flush or proud mount. For flush mount the cupboard base panel should be recessed 12mm.
In either case the minimum clearance of the rangehood shall be no less than 600mm above
the top of the highest gas burner or electric hotplate.
1. The installation of Harvey Norman Rangehoods must comply with the information in this
booklet.
2. Every Harvey Norman Rangehood must be ducted to the outside atmosphere by the use
of metal rigid ducting.
Do not use of any type of plastic PVC piping
. Rangehoods
must not be vented into a wall cavity or a ceiling space. This prevents a build up of
grease, which can be a fire risk. Ensure the external outlet vent does not restrict the
airflow in any way, as this may result in reduced performance.
3. Harvey Norman Rangehoods must be ducted in duct work equivalent to the outlet of the
rangehood ie: The cross sectional area of the rangehood outlets and the duct work must
be equal. Do not reduce the duct size or have sharp bends. Enlarge the duct size if the
duct is to run 6 metres or longer. Advice from Qasair is available to ensure optimum
performance. Always use non-flammable materials to minimise the risk of fire in the duct
at a later date.
4. Ensure ducting used for HNE & HNR is a minimum size of ø200 per fan.
5. Always adequately ventilate the room when the rangehood is in use at the same time as
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
