Installation Instructions

INSTALLATION – RECIRCULATING

DUCTWORK, WIRING LOCATIONS

Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
Locate the template packed with the literature.
Measure 36″ from the floor to the top of the cooking

surface. Add hood installation height determined on

page 8. Mark that location.

Tape the template in position along the penciled line.

CHECK TO BE SURE THE TEMPLATE IS LEVEL.

Use a level to draw a line straight up, from

the centerline on the template to the ceiling.

HOUSE WIRING LOCATION:

The junction box is located on the top left side

of the hood.

Wiring can enter from the back wall or ceiling above

the top bracket location. Route additional wiring

length to reach the junction box.

INSTALL FRAMING FOR

HOOD SUPPORT

IMPORTANT:

The vent hood must be secured

to rear support framing or a wall stud. Framing

must be capable of supporting 100 lbs.

If drywall is present, mark the screw hole locations

for the top mounting brackets. Remove the template.
Cut away enough drywall to expose 2 vertical studs

at the bracket location indicated on the template.

Install a horizontal support at least 1″ x 12″

between two wall studs at the mounting screw

location. The horizontal support must be flush with

the room side of the studs. Use cleats behind both

sides of the support to secure to wall studs.

IMPORTANT: Reinstall drywall for an even mounting

surface.
