8) Install an appropriate 1/2" UL listed electrical wire clamp through each motor box electrical opening on top of the
hood. Install electrical wiring from the service panel to the hood location for each motor box. Consult the connection
diagrams (on previous page) for further details on electrical placement.
Method 1: Extend wiring to 30" above the countertop. Electrical connection(s) will occur after the hood is installed
on the wall.
Method 2: Extend wiring to the hood. Electrical connection(s) will occur before the hood is installed on the wall.
Installation Details Continued
9) If using a duct cover, carefully remove the knockouts from the top four corners of the hood. Remove the duct cover
from its packaging and remove the mounting screws from the base of the duct cover. Place the duct cover on the top
of the hood and secure it temporarily through the knockout openings using the mounting screws previously removed.
Lift the hood and duct cover assembly to the location on the wall where it will be installed.
Lightly mark the wall with a short, horizontal mark along the bottom edge of the hood. When finished, remove the hood
and duct cover assembly from the wall. Remove the duct cover that was previously installed on the hood and set both
items aside.
10) On the back side of the hood, measure the distance between the bottom edge of the hood and the top edge of the
wood mounting strip. Measure this distance above the horizontal mark made in Step 9 and lightly mark the wall with
a level, horizontal line. Measure where the center (left to right) of the hood will be and mark the upper, horizontal line
on the wall with a short, vertical centerline.
11) Remove the screws inside the top of the back of the hood that retain the wood strip that is recessed in the mounting
channel. Note: Some retaining screws may be located behind the blower(s). Remove the wood mounting strip from
the back of the hood and place the top edge of the strip on the upper, level, horizontal line on the wall. Referencing the
vertical centerline from Step 10, place the mounting strip on the wall so it is centered (left to right) in the space where
the hood will be located. Drill pilot holes in the strip to prevent splitting. Using proper hardware, attach the mounting
strip to at least two wall studs.
12) FOR BACK VENTING APPLICATIONS ONLY. IF NOT BACK VENTING, PROCEED DIRECTLY TO STEP 13. Note: Wall
studs may interfere with back venting installations. Additional framing may be required. It is necessary to cut duct
access hole(s) in the wall prior to installing the hood.
Method 1: Hold the hood on the mounting strip by aligning the channel at the top of the back of the hood over the
wood mounting strip on the wall. Place the appropriate elbow(s) on top of the hood in line with the hood
exhaust collar(s). On the wall, trace around the elbow(s). Remove the hood and elbow(s) from the wall. Cut
around the outside of the traced line(s), avoiding wall studs. Install the duct from the outside of the home
to the opening in the wall. Use duct tape to seal joints.
Method 2: Using the applicable venting accessories and the connection diagrams (previous page) as a guide, install
the duct(s) from the outside of the home to the wall over the exhaust outlet(s) on the hood. The end of the
duct(s) should extend 1" past the wall.
13) Hang the hood on the mounting strip by aligning the channel at the top of the back of the hood over the wood mounting
strip on the wall. While holding the hood in place, mark locations on the mounting strip through the two mounting
holes in the channel at the top of the hood. Some mounting holes may be located behind the blower(s). Remove the
hood and drill 3/32" pilot holes at the center of the marks in the wood strip to prevent splitting.

• Because the Magic Lung
®
blower uses centrifugal filtration rather than conventional baffle or mesh filters, the Magic Lung
®
blower can handle cooking equipment with higher cubic feet per minute (CFM) requirements and can deliver equivalent CFM much more
efficiently than other than other filtration systems. When comparing the Magic Lung
®
with other blower units made by other manufacturers, use the “Equivalent CFM”.
