Is this product ventless/ductless? I can't install a vent hood that requires a duct leading outside. Thank you for your help!

It can be set up either way. we did the ventless, works great..you do have to order filter covers for the fan if ventless..those are about another 40 dollars. have fun

Yes, I have the z line range hood and it is not ducted outside and I used these filters. I purchased these three years ago and have been very happy with both products.

Vent free means it does not require a vent to the outside in order to be installed. I just installed one in my rv but I found that I had to install it in the basement where there was enough clearance on the top. The exhaust on the top of the excel gets way too hot, so I felt it would be better where there was plenty of room around it so nothing would melt or burn. I love it though. I can happily take a 45 minute shower if I want.

If you want to get technical, you will want to know the CFM (cubic feet per minute) of the fan you are using. If you have a 6 inch and a 4 inch fan with the same CFM, they will vent the same amount of air. You will need 6 inch ducting to attach to the hood, but that does not necessarily mean you can only use a 6 inch fan. I rigged this up to a lasko blower fan from walmart (~$45) and it does well.

It's a front vented unit so no, no special venting required. It's a built in that can also be used as a stand alone.

Bernard, not positive if you can do so. Best to contact the company. If you look online, you should be able to locate customer service. I vented ours through the window and it worked very well. My guess would be that you would need a good seal around the vent tube to do so.

If the air is coming from the hood, then you know it's NOT ducted. Ducted means the air is pushed through a duct to the outside.

There are no ducts with this ozone generator. It has a fan that disperses the ozone throughout the area. We used it to "ozone" our car. I just put it on top of the dashboard and turned the fan on high. It killed the smell throughout the vehicle.

Ductless was not part of the package, we had to call the manufacturer for that option after we purchased it

To be clear; you may install a 90-degree elbow before the fixture (hood) that is attached to the outside of your home. I think that's obvious. The hood is necessary for the product to work as intended, that is: it's designed to propel the exhaust away from the building with a rather small amount of airflow. The hood has two venturi slots on its sides. These entrain and mix outside air with exhausted air and are necessary to achieve the effect. You could eliminate the hood, but now you'd need more airflow to propel the exhaust away. This means more blower strength and more exhaust noise. If you're going to do that, I'm not sure it makes sense to buy this product. To be clear; you may install a 90-degree elbow before the fixture (hood) that is attached to the outside of your home.

It is capable of being ventless. You'll have to either buy the kit that has the duct work to push the air through the fins or build your own and buy the separate carbon filters that clean the air.

Yes, the large round fitting you see in the picture is the vent to outside. you need to attach a hose, not included, or a piece of duct work from the fan outlet to an outside area.

This unit in only suitable for protected outdoor installation. There is no way to vent the fumes through a duct, Noritz makes another model for that.

It is a standard exhaust Does not require a power vent. I have one I a enclosed room in a barn with no vent on it and have never had a fumes or heat problem with it. The one we have in our outdoor kitchen has a pipe but not sure it really made any difference It only runs a minute at a time so no long run times on either of mineI really like these units and how hot they get so fast.

No, please dont This specific model is designed for exterior installation only. However there is a similar product that is designed for interior installation but requires a duct venting to an exterior wall.it is a little cheaper but requires more installation work due to the exhaust ventilatio

This unit is mounted outside the building so does not require additional venting other than what is right in the unit. There are also some units that are mounted inside the building, and those do require a vent to the outside.

I installed mine and i hooked it up to the existing duct that vents outside....pretty easy
