how high for hood

finaly got all my stuff together for my exhaust hood what i need to know is how high max i can put it above the top of my ovens and still be effective i am using lincoln double stack with the stand there about 5 feet 11 inches tall would like to put hood about 12 to 14 inches above that the hood i got is a monster 76" long 48" deep 25" tall so it will cover all the oven including conveyors hope this does the trick were burning up two wall a/c units three large fans its 95 degrees outside with about 80 percent humidty able to keep the barn at 90 degrees inside have a jerry riged hood right now it works just not very well :oops:

  Hello Pizza,you have the same hood as myself except mine is 80''wide and I also have Lincolns double stacked.The bottom of my hood is @6'leaving not much space in between but this captures all of the heat.Just be ready for even more noise.
