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. (Figure 1)
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.
Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing
Important: Peel protective film off the hood
and the duct cover (if any).
If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross
framing lumber for secure installation. Refer to
Table 1 and measurements on Page 12 to
decide the level of the lumber. (Figure 2)
Loosen hood-mounting brackets at the back of
the hood, adjust brackets and tighten screws.
If necessary, remove the rubber stand on the
back of the hood. (Figure 3)
