Consider Make-Up Air: • Due to the high volume of ventilation air, a source of outside replacement air is recommended. This is particularly important for tightly sealed and insulated homes. • A qualified heating and ventilating contractor should be consulted. NOTE: Ventilation hoods and blowers are designed for use with single-wall ducting. Some local building codes may require double-wall ducting. Before starting installation, consult local building codes and agencies to insure that the installation will meet local requirements.

If the cooktop has a griddle, add 200 CFM to the estimated blower capacity. Additional blower capacity may be required for longer duct runs. • For island applications, it is recommended to use a hood width that exceeds the width of the cooktop by 6" (overlapping the cooktop by 3" on each end). • **Not all 48" Pro Wall Hood models can accommodate a 1300 CFM blower option. • CFM = "cubic feet per minute" (standard blower capacity rating).
