Installation Instructions

STEP 2A INSTALL HOOD ONTO WALL

• Secure the wood support to 2 or more vertical studs, using

at least 2 of the 4 supplied long screws.

IMPORTANT:

Screws must penetrate at least 1-1/2" into

vertical studs. Countersink screws into support.

• Adjust depth of original mounting screws in wood support

until they protrude 1/4" forward. This 1/4" gap will provide
clearance to hang the hood.

IMPORTANT: Framing must be capable of
supporting up to 150 lbs.

Test Duct Cover Fit
• Place duct cover(s) over the top of the hood to check for

gaps. Adjust the hood up or down if necessary.

Install Bottom Mounting Screws
• Drill 1/8" pilot holes into the two bottom mounting holes.

Enlarge the holes if they did not enter studs to 3/8". Insert
anchors for wall fasteners into bottom holes. Remove
anchor screws and add flat washers provided. Drive
screws into anchors and tighten.

• Install 4 additional screws through the inside back of the

hood and into the wood support.

IMPORTANT: Remove
shipping tape from
damper and check that
damper moves freely.

SKIP THIS STEP IF INSTALLING BENEATH A SOFFIT OR
CABINET, GO TO STEP 2B.

• Locate at least 2 vertical studs at the wood support.
• Center the supplied wood support, left to right and below the

20" marked line.

• Place the duct transition piece over the hood exhaust and secure

with 4 screws provided.

• Use duct tape to seal the connection. Check to be sure the

damper moves freely.

Hang Hood On Wood Support
• Lift the hood and hold close to the installation location. Route

house wiring through the knockout and into the junction box.

• Place the hood over the wood support. Be sure the mounting

screws engage the keyhole slots in the back of the hood. Tighten
the screws.

WARNING:

Continue to provide additional

support while the hood is mounted with only these 2 screws. These
screws will not support the weight of the hood. The hood could
fall resulting in damage or personal injury.
