Lux Air General Installation and Safety Guidelines

Ensure that the extractor is sited the correct and regulatory distance above the hob and transfer the template measurements to the wall using the line as reference.

All ventilation connections should be made behind the flue and may be possible above the ceiling dependent on the joist direction.

Telescopic Flues
All the wall mounted chimney hoods and corner chimney hoods have telescopic flues, which adjust to suit most room heights. The telescopic flue is made up of a lower and upper section. The lower section houses the motor; the upper section conceals the ducting and is open at the rear to allow turning the ducting through 90 degrees.

Alternatively the ducting can be run out the top of the upper section and through the ceiling.

Other wall mounted chimney hoods have the motor in the base section and the telescopic flue hides the ducting. The flue is again open at the rear so that ducting can be run out through the rear wall or run out the top through the ceiling.

Before ordering a hood, measure your ceiling height. Double check that everything will fit or ask your installer to check sizes on your behalf.

Positioning
Cooker hoods are best planned to be sited onto an outside wall in the kitchen if this is at all possible. By doing this you will minimise the length of the ducting and maximise the performance.

Height above Hobs
Ideally the chimney hood should be positioned between 650mm to 750mm above the hotplate: Note - the chimney hood must not be positioned less than 650mm. If you are using a back panel/splash back you will find the height pre-determined at 750mm.
