Preparation before Installation
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. (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.
- Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing. Refer to step 8
& 9 and figure 8 on page 6.
- Important: Peel any protective film off the
hood.
- Use duct tape to seal the joints between
pipe sections.
- If necessary, prepare back wall frame with
cross framing lumber for secure installation.
Refer to Table 1 and measurements on
Page 11 to decide the level of the lumber.
(Figure 2)
- Loosen hood-mounting brackets at the back
of the hood, adjust brackets and tighten
screws as shown in Figure 3.
- If necessary, remove the rubber stand on
the back of the hood and discard. (Figure

Hood Installation
CAUTION: If it is necessary to move the
cooking range to install the hood, be sure to
turn off the power on an electric range at the
