Installation manual
Kitchen Hoods • Type I and Type II 13
Double Island Canopy Style Hoods
A double island hood is created by installing two 
wall style hoods back to back. Use the installation 
procedure described for single island canopy hoods; 
install and level both hoods. After leveling, secure the 
hoods together by tack-welding and/or bolting the rear 
mounting brackets together. Double island hoods may 
also be provided with a U-Channel to seal the seam 
between the two hoods.
Installing U-Channel Strip
1. After the hood is hung in position and leveled, apply 
caulk to the inside edge of the double island clip. 
2. Position and install the clip by tapping into position 
along clip (friction fit).
3. Caulk edges to seal out grease and allow for ease 
of cleaning. Caulk with NSF Approved silicone caulk 
(GE SCS1009 or its equivalent). The caulk is not 
provided.
NOTE
Before hanging the hoods, please verify the hood 
marks to ensure the correct hood is hung on the 
correct side.
NOTE
Installation instructions may not be applicable for 
concrete ceilings.

Installing Enclosure Panels
Before installing the enclosure panels, make sure 
the hood is hung in position with all the ductwork 
attached and all fire system and electrical connections 
completed.
1. Position the end enclosure panels on the hood, and 
clamp into place with clamps provided or tack-weld 
the panels into place.
2. Fasten the end enclosure panels to the wall; method 
depends on wall construction. (Fasteners provided 
by others).
  If the hood is a double island, bolt the end enclosure 
panels together. (Fasteners provided by others).
3. Position the front enclosure panel(s) on the hood, 
and bolt to the end enclosure panels with the 5/16 in. 
bolts provided in the hardware package.
4. Tack-weld or clamp the front enclosure panel(s) 
to the hood. If clamps are used, they must be 
positioned 4in. (10.16 cm) from the ends and in the 
center of the front enclosure panel.
5. To allow for ease of cleaning, caulk the external 
seams with NSF Approved silicone caulk 
(GE SCS1009, or its equivalent). The caulk is not
