Prepare the Hood Location

NOTE: Before starting installation, read all the steps of these instructions.
Use the illustration below to identify your kitchen cabinet type.

EZ1 one-person installation system

EZ1 installation is designed for use with kitchen cabinets that have the same width designation as 
the range hood width. If the cabinet is greater than 1/2” wider than the range hood width, please 
use the standard installation method.

1 ] 

Use the proper template for vertical OR horizontal disharge (included) for placement of 
ductwork and electrical cutout in cabinet or wall. For a non-ducted installation, DO NOT cut a 
duct access hole, only cut the hole for electrical wiring. 

If replacing a hood and plan to use 

the existing duct and electrical, steps 2 to 5 may not be necessary. If so, skip to step 6.

2 ]  

Measure and mark the hood center line on cabinet bottom.

3 ]  

Align the center line on template with the hood center line marked on the bottom of the 
cabinet, placing the edge (where indicated) of the template against back wall. When using 
with framed cabinet for vertical exhaust installation, fold over rear edge of template equal 
to the depth of the cabinet frame at the wall (use graduations on template, 

C

 locations on 

template). Tape the template in place.

 

NOTE: When facing the installation, 

A

 and 

B

 (on template) must be at right.
