Plan the Location of the Hood and Ductwork
The ceiling structure must be capable of supporting the
weight of the insert sleeve (approximately 100 pounds),
the canopy itself, any mounting hardware and any
inadvertent user contact loads.
• Use a plumb bob to check the location.
Thecountertop/cooktop below the insert sleeve must
be centered with the insert sleeve.
• If desired, install the control in a remote location
using the supplied mounting hardware. See the
following pages for detailed instructions for
mounting the control remotely.
• Refer to Ceiling Ducting on page 13 for ductwork
installation.
IMPORTANT: The exhaust outlet in the top of the
insert sleeve is not centered; it is positioned closer
to the back side. Therefore, the insert sleeve may
not be centered front to back in the canopy. A
custom liner constructed by the cabinet supplier
is usually required for island installations.
NOTE: It is recommended that the custom hood
insert be purchased and on-site before the canopy
is constructed.
