18-3/4”
(lower) +
18-3/4”
(upper)
iii. Minimum height (duct cover only) =
18-3/4”
iv. Maximum height (duct cover only) =
36”
v. (OPTIONAL)
Extension DC Minimum height =
46-3/4”
vi. (OPTIONAL) Extension DC Maximum height =

3. COLD WEATHER INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
a. Check with your local building codes to see if a CFM reducer is an
acceptable alternative to make-up air.
b. Remove the WS-28TB CFMR (CFM Reducer) and inspect for any sign of
defect or damage. (ie. Cracks, broken flips)
c. AFTER COMPLETING Step A – G of WALL MOUNT INSTALLATION
d. Place the CFM reducer onto the outlet of the unit and seal the connection
point with aluminum tape. (Be sure it is secure with no opening or gaps)
e. Connect a 6” or 7” ducting to the collar of the hood.
f.
Connect the exhaust piping to the outlet of the unit.
(Fig. 2b)
g. Finish off by sealing the connection point with aluminum tape.
h. Slide the duct cover into the unit and adjust its height.
(Fig. 2c)
i.
Secure it with the (6) duct cover screws provided.
(Fig. 2d)
4. DUCTLESS INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
a. AFTER COMPLETING Step A – G of WALL MOUNT INSTALLATION
b. Remove the WS-28TBDK (ductless kit) and inspect for any sign of defect
or damage. (ie. dents, broken inlet)
c.
Mount the ductless kit at the top of the ceiling using the screws provided.
d. Make sure the duct cover vent opening aligns with the air diverter.
e. Connect a 6” or 7” ducting to the collar of the hood.
f.
Connect the exhaust pipe to the outlet of the unit.
(Fig. 2b)
