Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR
HOOD, PREVENT DEBRIS FROM
ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.
Decide the location of the venting pipe
from the hood to the outside. Refer to
Figure 8.
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.
If necessary, prepare back wall frame
with cross framing lumber for secure
installation.
Using references on Table 2 and
measurements on page 14-15, decide
the level of the lumber. Refer to
Figure 9.
Hood Preparation before Installation
Temporarily wire the hood to test for
proper operation before installing.
Important: Peel protective film off
the hood and the duct cover (if any).
Attach
the
two
hood-mounting
brackets to the back of the hood with
(3/16” x 3/8”) screws (provided) as
shown In Figure 10.
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 2 and
measurements on page 14-15, mark the
leveling point of the hood. Position two
mounting screws (not provided) on the
wall, leaving 1/8” away from the wall as
shown in Figure 11.
