Proper installation/ducting is extremely
important to ensure maximum
performance. Use a qualified and
trained installer.
DUCTING
• Check with a qualified and
trained installer or local codes
for makeup air requirements,
if any.
• Max. duct run
o For 300 – 1,200 CFM—50’
(152.4 m)
o For 1,500 CFM—75’ (22.9 m)
o Duct run length is for general
reference only; for longer
duct runs, increase duct size
and contact a qualified and
trained installer.
o Straight runs and gradual
turns are best; for example,
each 90° elbow is equivalent
to 5’ – 10’ (1.52 – 3.05 cm) of
straight run.
• 7” (17.8 cm) round duct for
300 – 600 CFM; 10” for 900 –
1500 CFM
o Never use flexible duct; it
creates back pressure/air
turbulence and greatly
reduces performance.

ELECTRICAL

Note: All CFMs are based on tests with 0.1 static pressure. Without applying static pressure (some brands do not), CFM could be
greatly overstated.
