} outlet
The outlet should, under no circumstances,
be connected to a duct which is also being
used for other purposes.
The air can be discharged directly outside
through the wall opening, provided this is
protected by a grid to shield against rain
and leaves, etc.
The grid should not restrict the outlet hole
by more than 20%.
Although an adapter 125/100 mm is
available, we recommend that an extractor
duct measuring 125 mm be installed. A
smaller diameter results in a lower
extracting capacity and a higher noise level.
Ensure that the connections fit well.
Aluminium or plastic tape can be used to
connect the pipes.
Bends in the ducting will have a negative
influence on the extracting capacity and
should therefore be avoided as much as
possible.
ATAG provides accessories for extractor
ducts of extractor hoods. A list of the
product assortment and the relevant type
numbers can be found in the model/price
list.

} general
attention:
} electrical connection
An extractor hood should be installed in
accordance with national regulations. These
state, for example, that the distance
between the bottom of the extractor hood
and a gas cooking appliance should be at
least 75 cm. For electric cooking appliances,
this distance should be at least 65 cm.
When an extractor hood and a heat source
(e.g. gas, oil, coal stoves, etc.) requiring air
are used together in the same room,
attention is required since the hood may
exhaust the necessary combustion air
creating a depression in the room.
Maximum depression allowed in the room
is 0.04 mbar in order not to pipe into the
room exhaust gas from the heat source. To
ensure this condition, an air source is
necessary in the room to feed the room
constantly with fresh air.
When making the electrical connections,
make sure the current socket has an earth
wire connection and check that the voltage
corresponds with the rating plate inside the
hood. After the extractor hood is installed,
the socket should be easily accessible so
that the can be switched off. When
connecting the appliance to the mains
supply, national regulations must always be
observed.
