Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING
THE VENT OPENING.
- Decide the location of venting pipe from the hood
to the outside. Refer to Figure 1.
- A straight, short venting run will allow the hood
to perform more efficiently.
- Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and
long run as possible. This may reduce the
performance of the hood.
- Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe
sections.
- Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing.
- If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross
framing lumber for secure installation. Using
references on Table 1 and the measurements on
pages 11-12, decide the level of the lumber.
Refer to Figure 2.
- Peel protective film off the duct cover and the
hood (if any).
Hood Installation
CAUTION: If required to move the cooking
range to install the hood, turn off the power on
an electric range at the main electrical box.
SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS
RANGE.
1. Using references on Table 1 and
measurements on pages 11-12, mark the
leveling point for hood-mounting bracket on
the wall.
2. Secure 3 mounting screws (not provided) on
the wall leaving 1/8” away from the wall.
Refer to Figure 3.
3. Align hood-mounting bracket to the mounting
screws on the wall and hook hood into place.
4. Secure and tighten the mounting screws.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE HOOD IS
SECURE BEFORE RELEASING.
