5. Installation
Proper installation is critical for the performance and safety of your chimney. It is highly recommended to have the chimney installed by a certified professional. Refer to the included installation guide for detailed steps.
Pre-Installation Checks:
- Cabinet Size: Ensure adequate space between kitchen cabinets for the chimney.
- Width: Measure the clear width between cabinets. Common chimney widths are 60 cm, 75 cm, or 90 cm.
- Height: Measure the height from the gas stove to the desired chimney base position. For slant models like this one, the recommended minimum clearance is typically 18-22 inches (45-55 cm) from the cooking surface. Always confirm specific clearance requirements in the detailed installation manual.
- Ducting: Decide between ducted installation (expelling smoke outside) or ductless (using a charcoal filter, purchased separately).
