PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
Ductwork Design Tips
Wherever possible, reduce the number of transitions
and turns to as few sharp angles as possible. Two
staggered 45° angles are better than one 90°.
Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as
possible, and allow as much space between bends
as possible.
For best performance, use round ducts instead of
rectangular, especially when elbows are required.
If multiple elbows are used, try to keep a minimum of
24" of straight duct between them.
Avoid “S” or “back to back” use of adjacent elbows.
In regions where the weather gets extremely cold,
use thermal breaks, such as a short section of non-
metallic duct, to avoid indoor heat loss. Locate the
break as close as possible to the outside pass-
through point.
Do not use flexible metal duct.
Do not use ductwork that is smaller in cross-sectional
area than the recommended types above.
