DUCTED INSTALLATION
WALL AND ISLAND HOODS
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Consult a qualified HVAC
Engineer for specific ducting applications.
Decide where the ductwork will run between
the hood and the outside. A straight, short
duct run will allow the hood to perform more
efficiently. Limit the number of elbows and
transitions to as few as possible. Long duct
runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the
performance of the hood. Wolf recommends
the maximum linear duct run be no greater
than 50' (15 m).
To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal
ductwork.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
There is a possibility of
noise issues, when using a remote blower with
a short duct run.
Wolf recommends installing a backdraft
damper in all installations. A backdraft damper
is included with the hood. It is built into the
transition from the hood to the duct run.
Unless you are using a remote blower, a roof
or wall cap should be installed. Connect
ductwork to the cap and work back towards
the hood. Use duct tape to seal the ductwork
joints.
Local building codes may require the use of
make-up air. Consult your local HVAC profes-
sional for specific requirements in your area.
