Complete Preparation
1. Determine the required height for the home power supply
cable and drill a 1¼" (3.2 cm) hole at this location.
2. Run the home power supply cable according to the National
Electrical Code or CSA Standards and local codes and
ordinances. There must be enough ½" conduit and wires from
the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the
connection in the hood’s electrical terminal box.
NOTE: Do not reconnect power until installation is complete.
3. Remove terminal box cover and set aside.
4. Remove knockout from the top of the vent hood and install a
UL listed or CSA approved ½" strain relief.
Install Range Hood
1. Remove the grease filters. See the “Range Hood Care”
section.
2. Depending on your installation, remove either top or rear
rectangular vent knockout. If using round vent, remove top
rectangular knockout.
Make sure damper pivot is nearest to top/back edge of range
hood.
3. Remove tape from damper flap.
NOTE: The 3¼" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular damper can
be installed up to 1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the hood center
to accommodate off-center duct work.
4. Attach the 3¼" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular vent
connector to the range hood using sheet metal screws.
NOTE: If the wall cap is directly behind the 3¼" x 10" (8.3 x
25.4 cm) rectangular vent connector, check that the damper
and the wall cap do not interfere with each other. Remove the
damper from the 3¼" x 10" ( 8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular vent
connector if they interfere.
5. Using 2 or more people, lift the hood into final position. Feed
enough electrical wire through the ½" UL listed or CSA
approved strain relief to make connections in the terminal
box. Tighten the strain relief screws.
6. Position the range hood so that the large end of the keyhole
slots are over the mounting screws. Then push the hood
toward the wall (for cabinet mounting) or allow the range
hood to slide down to the marked mounting height (for wall
mounting) so that the screws are in the neck of the slots.
Tighten the mounting screws, making sure the screws are in
the narrow neck of slots. (For wall mount, check that the
hood is level).
7. Connect ventwork to hood. Seal joints with clamps to make
secure and airtight.
8. Check that back draft dampers work properly.
