I have a variable speed range hood (350-800CFM)operating on 120V.
HVAC contractor is requiring 120V power to be sent to a relay in the basement that will operate the furnace blower in turn providing make up air to the kitchen.
120V to the relay can only be on when the blower is operating.
I don’t see how to accomplish this without “getting into” the factory wiring of the hood which will void warranty.
There are 3 push button settings on the console for the blowers if that’s a factor as well in accomplishing what HVAC wants.
Past units I’ve wired have an optional accessory kit from the factory for this application.
Any help appreciated
