What are the safety recommendations for reducing the risk of a stove top grease fire with the ANCONA TORNADO ISLAND II 36?

To reduce the risk of a stove top grease fire, follow these guidelines:

Keep all fans, filters, spacers, grease trays, oil containers, and grease-laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, filters, spacers, grease trays, oil containers, and surfaces.

Always turn the range hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods.

Use high settings on the cooking range only when necessary.

Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

Clean the ventilating fan frequently.

Always use appropriate cookware and utensil sizes.

Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.


What are the venting requirements for the ANCONA TORNADO ISLAND II 36?

The vent system must terminate to the outside (Roof or side wall).

DO NOT terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.

DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.

Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/aluminum vent is recommended.

DO NOT use plastic vent.

Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow.

Calculate the following figures before installation: 1. Distance from the floor to the ceiling. 2. Distance between the floor to the countertop/stove. 3. Distance between the cooking surface to the range hood (recommend 24” to 30”). A minimum of 30” is required for gas cook top. 4. Height of hood and duct cover.

Ducted fans MUST always be vented to the outdoors.

This unit MUST be grounded and use only metal ductwork.


What are the height and clearance recommendations for efficient operation of the ANCONA TORNADO ISLAND II 36?

A distance of 24” to 30” is recommended between the stove top and the bottom of the range hood. A 30” minimum is required for gas stove tops.

It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof through 6” (15.3 cm) or bigger round metal/aluminum vent work.

The size of the vent should be uniform.

Use no more than three 90° elbows.

Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.

DO NOT install two elbows together.

The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a damper, DO NOT use damper (if supplied) on top of the range hood.

Use silver tape or duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system.

Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.


How do I calculate the vent system length for the ANCONA TORNADO ISLAND II 36?

To calculate the length of the system you need, deduct the equivalent feet for each vent piece used in the system from the recommended maximum duct run.

Duct Run Calculation:
Recommended maximum run
6” or 3-1/4 x 10” duct 30 ft
Vent piece deduction
Each 90º elbow used 9 ft
Each 45º elbow used 5 ft
Each 6” to 3-1/4x 10” transition used 7 ft
Side wall cap with damper 0 ft

Duct Run Calculation example: One roof cap, two 90º elbows, and one 45º elbow use: 0ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 23ft used. Deduct 23ft from 30ft, 7ft maximum available for straight duct run.

How should I clean the exterior surfaces of the ANCONA TORNADO ISLAND II 36?

Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth.

DO NOT use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. Comet Power Scrub®, EZ-Off® oven cleaner), or steel wool/scoring pads, which will scratch and damage the stainless steel surface.

For heavier soil use liquid degrease such as “Formula 409®” or “Fantastic®” brand cleaner.

If the hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel.

CAUTION: DO NOT leave on too long as this may cause damage to hood finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to dry the hood.

After cleaning, you may use non abrasive stainless steel polish such as 3M® or ZEP®, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly, with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.

DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.

DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.

DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Rinse with water after exposure to these compounds and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
