Installation

ventilation

DiRect FLUe ARRAnGeMent
When the installation of a mechanically driven exhaust

hood is impractical the oven may be vented by a direct

flue arrangement.

WARninG!!

It is essential that the direct flue be installed

as follows. incorrect installation will result in

unsatisfactory baking and oven damage.

The flue must be class B or better. The height of the flue

should rise 6-8 ft (2-2.5 m) above the roof of the build-

ing or any proximate structure. Never direct vent the oven

into a hood. The flue should be capped with a UL Listed

type vent cap to isolate the unit from external environ-

mental conditions.
The direct vent cannot replace air consumed and vented

by the oven. Provisions must be made to supply the room

with sufficient make-up air. Total make-up air require-

ments for each oven section should be approximately 30

CFM (.85 m3) per section. To increase the supply air en-

tering the room, a ventilation expert should be consulted.
