ensure that the housing is fi rmly fi xed
to the wall in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
If it is necessary to fi x the housing for
the canopy to a hollow construction
plaster or partition board structure then
it should be suffi ciently reinforced to
be quite rigid in the area of the cabinet
housing fi xings.
Ducting

125mm (5ins) in diameter and the length
should be no more than:
