The ceiling bracket must be installed when the duct
cover is used to span 24” or more height above the
hood. The bracket will hold the decorative duct cover in
place at the top.
Note:

The ceiling bracket is not required when using

only the 12” section of the duct cover.
• Install the 2 small screws into the sides of the duct

bracket. Remove the screws. Pre-tapping the holes will
insure ease of final installation.

• Match center notch on the bracket to the centerline

on the wall and flush against the ceiling.

• Mark the 2 screw hole locations.
• Drill 1/8” pilot holes in marked bracket location.
• If pilot holes do not enter studs, enlarge the holes to

3/8” and install wall fastener anchors.

• Secure the bracket to the rear wall with wood screws

and washers. Use wall anchors if needed.

Note: Bracket has 2 sets of holes. Use larger holes for wall
fasteners or wood screws with washers. Use smaller holes
for wood screws with washers.
