Introduction
This kit contains the materials necessary to convert a DHW series
hood to a recirculating configuration in instances where exhausting
the hood outside the building is not practical or desired. The kit
consists of a top cap and charcoal filter(s). When installed, the top
cap redirects air flow out the vents in the sides of the hood chimney
assembly. The provided charcoal filter(s) are installed underneath
the baffle type filters included with the hood. The charcoal filter(s)
reduce smoke and fumes before the hood exhaust is vented into the
room.
