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
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 5
to decide the level of the lumber. (Figure 2)
Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with
eight (3/16” x 3/8”) screws (included).
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 4)
