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. Refer to 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.
-
Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe
sections.
1. Mark centerlines of cook top or range on
ceiling above. Use centerlines marked on
ceiling to position the mounting template as
shown in Figure 2.
2. Remove and save template. Cut and remove
ceiling drywall. Install 2” x 4” cross framing
lumber (not provided) between ceiling joists.
Refer to Figure 3. Consult a professional if
you have difficulty or your installation is
unique.
3. Finish the ceiling surface. Be sure to mark the
location of the ceiling joists and cross framing,
or replace the mounting template in the
position of the ceiling joists & cross framing.
4. Attach the telescopic stack to the ceiling and
securely fasten to the joists and cross framing
with eight screws (not provided) as shown in
Figure 3. Make sure screws are driven into
center of joists and cross framing for
maximum support.
5. Adjust the telescopic stack using reference F
calculated in Table 1 and measurements on
page 12. Tighten from the side with eight
(4x8mm) screws (provided) as shown in
Figure 4.
