Why is my Presenza QR025 654OVSN016STS not venting properly?

Several factors can affect venting efficiency. First, ensure no birds or animals have nested in the duct. The distance between the cooktop and the hood's bottom should be between 458 mm (18 in) and 710 mm (28 in). Ductwork should meet all requirements, using round metal ducts with a uniform diameter of 152 mm (6 in), and not exceed 35 ft (10.7 m) in length. Reduce duct length and elbows if needed, and ensure all joints are sealed and taped. Verify the duct doesn't open against the wind. For heavy cooking, use the high-speed setting. Close nearby windows to prevent air gusts. To improve performance, slightly open a window on the opposite side of the house from where the hood vents.
