Subtotal Column 1 = ft. *E quivalent lengths of duct pieces are based on actual tests and reflect requirements for good venting performance with any downdraft cooktop. †M easure and list feet of straight duct used. Count and list the quantity of all other duct pieces for the "Number Used" of each type. IMPORTANT: For maximum efficiency, use the shortest and straightest duct run possible, with as few fittings as possible. For satisfactory performance, the duct run should not exceed 100 feet equivalent length. Venting performance is improved by using larger diameter duct.

Subtotal Column 2 = ft. Subtotal Column 1 = ft. TOTAL DUCTWORK = ft. Should not exceed 100 feet. If flexible metal ducting is used, all the equivalent feet values in the table should be doubled. The flexible metal duct should be straight and smooth and extended as much as possible. DO NOT use flexible plastic ducting. Vent installation should not exceed 100 feet equivalent length. 18
