Hi All: My ceiling duct is 3 1/4" x 10" rectangular. Is there room in the "chimney" to fit an adapter to accommodate the 6" round duct? Thanks!

Yes there should be room for a transition from rectangular to round pipe. The distance from the top of the exhaust duct connection, to your rectangular duct will restrict you some. The exhaust fan and damper extends up into the stainless steel trim approx. 12 inches . The trim section is approx. 12" wide and 11" deep.

The chimney is 8 3/4 wide by 6 1/2 deep. As to height, our ceiling is 8' and it's plenty high. Great hood!!

Felickz, I guess I misspoke about the size of the vent piping size, Which this fan does vent 6". I also recommended using the Broan 636 fan-jack but meant to use the Broan 634 fan-jack for roof installation or if venting sidewall use the Broan 843 which both have a back draft dampers. Hope this clears this up!!!MarkInnovative HVAC Systems, Inc.

You should be able to connect up to an existing duct which undoubtedly will pass thorough the base of your cabinet. If its 6 in diameter vent pipe (most likely) you will need a transition from the rectangular blower on this cooktop to the round duct and perhaps and adjustable angle. Just make sure you have about 15" to 20" of clearance to allow for the transition to the round duct. Its a relatively simple connection, but may require a few pipe parts to make the turn and reconnect to your existing pipe (depending upon where it is in the cabinet. Hope this helps.

I purchased longer, hex head screws to attach it to the closest two by four that supports the ceiling. Since my previous fan used 3" ducting, I purchased a metal 4' to 3' round reducer to connect the fan to the existing duct. A 3" duct is louder, but it still does the job!

Hi Dennis, The aluminum duct that is included with the range hood is a standard circular one, so you will need an adapter for your rectangular wall vent. Thank you! Kitchen Bath Collection

Not exactly. The hole on the fan is 6". With that said I put a new 6" duct from the fan to the hole in the roof. The hole in the roof is a 4" hole. I just put a 6" to 4" transition and the fan runs fine. It is super quiet and gets plenty of flow.

I don't see why not as long as the final section of duct is 6 inch round. The only other consideration is if the range hood manufacturer specifies a larger duct due to required air flow.

The adapters that come with cover can fit up to a 3" pipe. There is however space on the top of the cover to make a 4" hole. And there is one blank adapter that will cover one of the holes in the top.

Very strange, 5 inch ducking. A 6 inch piece of ducking will snugglly fit around the defualt ducking with ease, this is how I fixed my problem. Had to connect to an exsisting six inch ducting exhuast with a coupler and noticed the ducting was 5 inch. Very important to not decrease the diameter of the exhaust because the unit will reset itself if the air doesn't exhaust quickly enough and heat builds up as a safety feature. The exhaust line should never temp more than 90-95 degrees.

The outlet accepts 4 inch standard duct pipe. The outlet is oval in shape so it can be installed in limited space. Most flexible ducting slides right on, I was able to get rigid (aluminum) dryer vent pipe on it as well. I used metal duct tape to seal the duct connection.

John... I had the same problem as I want to put the stove in my cabin and the chimney must extend higher than the roof. I know of no place to purchase the same size pipe as with the stove so my solution was to go to my local muffler shop and have him custom fabricate a section of 2 1/2 inch exhaust pipe to my specs. They were able to match the diameter of the pipe to the existing pipe by flaring the ends. Keep in mind though that in order to maintain the proper draft, especially in cold weather, the length outside the house must be insulated. This is very important. Wrap the chimney with fiberglass matting and protect it against rain water and you will be all set. Hope this helps you. Phil John...

FV-30VQ3 takes a 6" diameter flex duct. They don't make that obvious, do they?

It has a 4 inch round duct. The pic doesn't do it justice; it's beautiful. I was easy to install, works extremely well and is very quiet. It was a great purchase!

The ouptut duct for this model is 4" in diameter. If you are replacing an existing exhaust fan, you will probably have a 3" plastic flex duct vented directly into your attic which is not code compliant. Correct way is to replace the 3" plastic duct with a 4" insulated duct and vent to the outside directly.If you use the existing 3" duct, you will have to purchase a 4" to 3" adaptor.Hope this helps.AMGContracting

3 in. X 11 in. duct is standard size. You will find the necessary duct adaptors at Home Depot or any hardware store.
