Installation Instructions

 

TROUBLESHOOTING CHECKLIST

If the hood seems to be operating at high speed when 

the control is not set on high, or if ventilation seems 

inadequate, check the following:

 

Knockouts not removed from hood .

 

Damper blade not opening .

 

Reduced airflow because the duct is too small or the 

duct length is too long .

 

The duct is blocked .

 

Undersized or restrictive wall or roof cap .

If the hood seems to make excessive noise:

 

Fan may be hitting the filter . Turn off the fan and 

remove the filter . Bend the filter down slightly in the 

center (into a dome shape) to allow fan clearance . 

Reinstall and adjust as needed .

The fan does not work but the lights do:

 

Switch power off at the service panel and lock the 

service disconnecting means to prevent power from 

being switched on accidentally . When the service 

disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely 

fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to 

the service panel .

 

Check the wiring connections . See the 

CONNECT 

WIRING

 section in these Installation Instructions .

 

REPLACE FILTER

 

Make sure fan blade turns freely and replace the 

filter . 

NOTE:

 Install the metal grease filter if ducted or 

the charcoal filter if recirculated .

 

The installation is complete . Turn on power at service 

panel, and test for proper operation .

Metal grease filter or charcoal filter
