Important:
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where there
may be great variations in temperature
between the different areas, the prob
-
lem of sweating or condensation will
need to be addressed. The exhaust
ducting will need to be suitably insu
-
lated.
Condensate trap
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to col
-
lect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur.
When installing a condensate trap
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the ex-
haust connection.
Cooker hoods designed for use with an
external fan have an integrated con-
densate trap.
