Troubleshooting guide

Before hanging the hoods, please verify the hood marks to make sure the correct hood is
hung on the correct side.
A double island hood is created by installing two wall style hoods back to back. Use the installation
procedure described on page 5 for single island hoods; install and level both hoods. After leveling,
secure the hoods together by tack-welding and/or bolting the rear mounting brackets. Caulk this joint
with NSF Approved silicone caulk (GE SCS1009 or its equivalent). The caulk is not provided.

Continuous Capture Plenum Hoods
Installing U-Channel Strip
The hood hanging height is critical, hanging the hood at the incorrect height may significantly reduce
the ability for the hood to function properly and may be in violation of codes. The hood hanging height
(typically, 78 in. (198.12 cm) above the finished floor) is given on the UL label located on the inside of
the hood on the end panel. The hood must be hung level to operate properly. The grease trough is
pitched to drain into the grease container.
Hood Hanging Height

1. After the hood is hung in position and
leveled, apply caulk to the inside edge
of the double island clip. (Fig. 5)
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.
