INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable
codes and standards, including fire-rated construction codes and standards.
b) Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gasses through the flue (chimney) of fuel
burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guidelines and safety
standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society
for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.
c) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
d) Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
e) For safe and secure wall mounting, the TRADE-WIND
®
BBQ Liner should be mounted to a solid vertical
surface of sufficient width to allow for mounting of the Liner. The horizontal surface should extend from a vertical
plane to the point directly in front of the exhaust roof cap (or wall cap).
f) The Liner should be installed with a MINIMUM of three (3) feet of weather proof roof coverage on all sides that
are not protected from direct rain by an adjacent wall.
g) It is also required that all duct work and roof openings be thoroughly sealed with the applicable tape and/or roof
sealant to prevent ingress of water.
WARNING -- TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
CAUTION To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside Do not
vent exhaust air into spaces with in walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
PART 1 Planning the Installation
CAUTION:
1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
2. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, the Liner must be exhausted to outside air. Never
exhaust into a wall, an attic or a concealed area in the building. This can create a potential hazard.
3. Consult a licensed ventilation contractor or qualified technician for proper installation of exhaust ducting.
4. Locate the cooking area for minimum cross draftsaway from doors and windows, when possible.
5. Ducts must be of adequate size and duct runs should be as short as possible. Where turns are necessary,
keep turning radius as large and as smooth as possible.
6. The ducting must be air tight. Use a minimum of 2 sheet metal screws at every duct joint. Then, seal the duct
joints with high quality duct tape.
7. Only use ductwork constructed of materials deemed acceptable by state, municipal and local codes.
8. Plan the installation so that all minimum clearances are met or exceeded. Dimensions shown provide minimum
clearances, unless otherwise specified.
IMPORTANT: If the TRADE-WIND
®
L7200 Series BBQ Liner is installed as a liner for a wood hood, proper
installation of the hood as a Liner is directly related to the material from which the custom canopy is constructed.
You must provide structural framing and tight backing in the areas in which you are securing the Liner inside your
custom canopy. Failure to do so could distort and damage the Liner and void the warranty.
