*Equivalent lengths of duct pieces are based on

actual tests and reflect requirements for good venting
performance with any downdraft cooktop.

† Measure and list feet of straight duct used. Count and

list the quantity of all other duct pieces for the “Number
Used” of each type.

• Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and

exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of

fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting.

Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s

guideline 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. When

applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air

system in accordance with local building code

requirements. Visit *($SSOLDQFHVFRP for available

makeup air solutions.
