INSTALL BACKSPLASH
OPTIONAL
If optional Model BSK6 series backsplash is
used, attach it to the finished wall. Secure hood
mounting brackets to the backsplash and omit
wall framing described below.
INSTALL THE DUCTWORK
DUCTED CONFIGURATION ONLY.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only
steel ductwork.
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between
the hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood
to perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will
reduce the performance of the hood. Use as
few of them as possible.
4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect 6" round
steel ductwork to cap and work back towards
hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints
between ductwork sections.
INSTALL MOUNTING BRACKETS
1. Construct wood wall framing that is flush
with interior surface of wall studs.
Make sure:
a) the framing is centered over installation
location.
b) the height of the framing will allow the
mounting brackets to be secured to the
framing within the dimensions shown.
2.
After wall surface is finished, secure mount-
ing brackets to framing using dimensions
shown.

Note: minimum hood distance above cook top must not be less than 24”. A maximum
