6.5 Installation Procedure:
In order to secure the safe use of the range hood
and maximize its ability to ventilate cooking fumes,
the installation height is suggested as follows: The
distance from the countertop of the gas stove to
the top board of the range hood shall not be less
than 29 9/16"(750mm) and shall not be more than
32 1/2"(825mm). This installation height is only
applicable to electric ranges. If the range hood is
installed above a gas range, the minimum distance
between the supporting surface of the cooking
appliance on the range and the lowest part of
the range hood should be at least 24”(610mm)(in
USA)/25 5/8”(650mm)(in Canada). If the installation
instructions for the gas range specify a larger
installation distance, this should be considered.
The installation height of the range hood is the
recommended value, and the cupboard and the range
hood shown in the figure is for reference only. When
the installation height of this product (i.e. the distance
between the supporting surface of the cooking
appliance on the range and the lowest part of the
range hood) is lower than 24”(610mm)(in USA)/25
5/8”(650mm)(in Canada), all parts below 24”(610mm)
(in USA)/25 5/8”(650mm)(in Canada) are non-
flammable parts of the range hood or parts working
under safe and ultra-low voltage, and the deformation
of these parts will not affect the protection against
the touch of live parts. Where there are relevant laws
stipulating the mounting height of range hood in the
state or region, the laws shall prevail(Included but
not limited to architecture and firefighting regulations
and standards). However, the effect of cooking fumes
ventilation might be affected.
The range hood can be installed in three ways, either
with or without the upper cabinet.
Caution:
1.One of the wood screws(#10×2
9/16"(ST5×65mm)) for duct bracket must be
fastened to the wooden beam.
2.If it is necessary to drill the duct outlet at the back
wall, the distance from the top plane of the range
hood to the center of the hole should be at least 8"
(203mm).
