Pro Wall Hood Installation

24" and 27" Deep Wall Hoods
WALL PREPARATION
Construct the wood wall framing flush with the wall studs
and centered in the location that the hood will be
mounted. Finish the wall surface.
Attach the wood mounting support provided with the
hood. Refer to the illustration below. The mounting
support should be centered within the desired location of
the hood. Use the 3" (76) screws provided to attach the
mounting support to the wall. The screws should be
located to correspond with wall framing and countersunk
so that they are below flush.
Install the retaining brackets to the wood mounting
support at the locations shown in the illustration and the
chart below. Use the #10 X 1

For ease of installation, the location of the wood mounting
support and retaining bracket allow for

at the top of the hood. This gap will be taken up during
final mounting of the hood to the mounting support.
Refer to the illustration below for the location of mounting
holes for pro 24" (610) and 27" (686) deep wall hoods, one
on each side of the back plate.
Framing must be tied together and to ceiling joists to
provide enough structural strength to support the
weight of the hood and internal blower, if applicable.
