Venting Methods This island hood is factory set for venting through the roof. An 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round. NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance. Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.

For higher ceilings, a Stainless Steel Chimney Extension Kit Part Number W10272078 is available from your dealer or an authorized parts distributor.
