Get the brochure, http://www.luxairhoods.com/downloads/brochure04.pdf,
and look at page 7. The diagrams of the chimneys have little black
rectangles on them. These are the vents.
Obviously, if you send the hood output to the outside world, you don't
want to have the fumes coming back into the kitchen, so in that case
you don't use a bit of chimney with a vent!
Hope this helps

I understand what this means now, problem is that measurements dont
give you the size of the vent and position of it, ok its at the top but
when tight for space it becomes important.
I have heard you can just use the top (second section) on its own, have
contacted Lux air to see if they can calrify this but they dont seem to
be very clued up.....like me...but then I dont make a living from
selling these hoods
You can cut down the chimney with tin snips. I havnt done mine yet but
the ducting is where it has to be and the purely decorative "chimney"
will have an opening cut at one side. I'll probably box in the duct
which will also hide any tin snip roughness.
The lux air ones are all re badged elicias as far as I can see so look
at this site:

elicia probably make the other models you mentioned too.
