• The exhaust air line should be as short
and straight as possible.
• To avoid excessive noise or a reduced
extraction capacity the diameter of
the exhaust air pipeline should not be
less than 150 mm.
• Use or form only large radius bends.
Small radius bends reduce the extrac-
tion capacity of the hood.
• Use only smooth pipelines or flexible
hoses of non-flammable materials for
the exhaust air pipeline
• If the exhaust air pipeline is horizon-
tally routed, there must be a minimum
gradient of 1 cm per metre or an incli-
nation angle of 2°. (Fig. 3) Otherwise
condensation water could run into the
extractor hood motor.
• If the exhaust air is directed into an
exhaust air duct, the end of the entry
fitting must be directed in the direc-
tion of flow.

• If the exhaust air is directed into an
exhaust air duct, the end of the entry
fitting must be directed in the direc-
tion of flow.
• If the exhaust air pipeline is routed
though cool rooms, lofts etc. there can
be a large temperature drop within
the individual parts of the pipeline,
resulting in sweating or condensation
water production. This renders outlet
pipeline insulation necessary.
• In some cases a condensation water
barrier must be installed in addition to
adequate insulation
