Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist
or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the
materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Recommended installation height:
I
CAUTION
For gas cooktop & range installations: Mount the hood so the
bottom is at least 3O” (76.2 cm) above the cooking surface.
For electric/induction cooktop & range installations: Mount
the hood so the bottom is at least 24” (61 cm) above the
cooking surface.
There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recom-
mend mounting the hood no greater than 36” (91.4 cm) above
the cooking surface. For every inch (2.54 cm) above 36” (91.4
cm), fume and moisture capture efficiency diminishes at an
increasing rate and may not deliver an acceptable level of
ventilating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC
APPLICATION. Check your ceiling height and hood height
before selecting your hood.
