Faber PELLICANO Installation Instructions Manual - Warning
Version 10/05 - Page 5
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. If you must elbow right away, do it
as far away from the hood's exhaust opening
as possible.

CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The ductrun should not exceed 35 equivalent feet if
ducted with the required minimum of 6" round duct.
Calculate the length of the ductwork by adding the
equivalent feet in FIGURE 4 for each piece of duct
in the system. An example is given in FIGURE 5.
PLAN THE DUCTWORK
The Pellicano rangehood is designed to offer wide
flexibility of installations. The rangehood can be
ducted vertically or horizontally through a 6" round
vent. The unit can also be installed in a recirculating
configuration. FIGURES 1 and 2 show vertical and
horizontal installations for this unit. FIGURE 3 shows
recirculating installation. For direct rear venting,
remove the 10 screws on the outside edge of the
exhaust plate and flip motor to the rear exit.
The Pellicano requires 6" round ductwork. To en-
sure that the blower performs to its highest possible
capacity, ductwork should be as short and straight
as possilbe.

RECIRCULATING INSTALLATIONS
For recirculating installations, Charcoal Filters are necessary. Remove
all 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 3C). Replace all grease filters. Some ductwork must
be installed to exhaust the rangehood back into the kitchen, either at the
top of the cabinet (FIGURE 3A) or at the face or side of the soffit (FIGURE
3B). A plastic vent grate (FIGURE 3D) supplied with the rangehood can be
used to cover the duct opening. This duct work must not terminate into a
dead air space.
