Venting Methods
This hood is factory set for venting through the roof (vertical
discharge) or wall (horizontal discharge). A 10” (254 mm)
round duct system is needed for installation (not included).
NOTE: Flexible duct is not recommended. Flexible
ductwork creates back pressure and air turbulence that
greatly reduce performance.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall.
Always install a metal vent cover where the ductwork exits
the house.
For Non-Vented (recirculating) Installations
If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to
the outside, models HMWB30WS and HMWB36WS can
be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, using the
recirculating kit (sold separately). Fumes and vapors are
recycled through the grid.
See optional accessories section.

Assembly of the Transition
A minimum height clearance of 4
5
16’ (110 mm) is needed
above the hood for transition mounting. See “General
Information” on page 6 for overall hood dimensions.
1. Depending on direction of discharge, align mounting
holes at base of transition with the mounting holes on
the top of the hood.
