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. Refer to Figure 8.
- 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.
- Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe sections.
- If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross framing lumber for secure installation.
Using references on Table 2 and measurements on page 15, decide the level of the
lumber. Refer to Figure 9.
