Version Hi-Lo SS 08/04 - Page 5
PLAN YOUR DUCTWORK
The Inca HC SS requires 6" round
ductwork. To ensure that the blower
performs to its highest possible capacity,
ductwork should be as short and straight
as possilbe.
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet
if ducted with the required minimum of
6" round duct. Calculate the length of
the ductwork by adding the equivalent
feet in FIGURE A for each piece of duct
in the system An example is given in
FIGURE B.
For best results, use no more than three
90° elbows. Make sure that there is a
minimum of 24" of straight duct between
elbows if more than one is used. Do not
install two elbows together.

The Inca HC SS power pack rangehood is designed to offer a wide flexibility of
installations. The rangehood can be ducted vertically (FIGURE 2) or horizontally
(FIGURE 3) through a 6" round vent. The unit can also be installed in a recirculating
configuration (FIGURE 4). The unit comes standard in top venting position.

For direct rear venting, you must change the blower position. Remove the 2 screws
from the control panel (A in FIGURE 2). This allows the control panel to slide
through its housing, providing the necessary wire slack needed to rotate the blower
housing. Remove the 12 screws that hold the metal housing to the rangehood body.
Rotate the metal housing for direct rear venting. Replace all screws, making sure
that they are firmly fastened. Reinstall control panel.

RECIRCULATING INSTALLATIONS
For recirculating installations (FIGURE 4), Charcoal Filters are necessary. Remove
all three grease filters and set aside. Attach one charcoal filter to each end of the
blower. Each charcoal filter attaches to the black grid on the side of the blower.
Rotate the filter clockwise to install and counterclockwise to remove (FIGURE 4A).
Replace all three grease filters. Recirculating installations also require some duct
work to divert the air out of the cabinet. The duct work must not terminate inside
the cabinet. The plastic vent grate supplied with the rangehood (FIGURE 4B) can
be used to cover the duct opening.
