INSTALLING CHIMNEY STYLE HOODS 
1. Position the Chimney Hood on its back and 
locate the transition inside the Chimney Hood; 
remove the (4) #8 x ½” self tapping screws at the 
top of the hood which hold the transition to the 
hood (save these screws for later use), separate 
the transition from the hood base and duct cover. 
2. Install the transition to the duct work ensuring the 
bottom of the transition is centered and flush with 
the bottom of the duct cover. Check the position 
of the transition by sliding the duct cover over the 
mounted transition.  Verify that the transition is 
flush, and centered to the bottom of the duct 
cover. When transition installation is complete, 
be sure to check that the damper is not hindered 
from opening if using mechanical fasteners.  (See 
Figure 5) 
3. Run electrical supply from rear or top location of 
hood to hood J-Box(See Figure 2) 
4. Install the duct cover to the top of the hood using 
the 12 – 24 self tapping 7/8” length screws.  Also 
bolt the hood to the duct cover using the supplied 
stainless steel 3/8” bolts. 
5. Before hanging the hood, drill holes in the back 
of the hood, if necessary, to line up with the 
structural studs in the wall.  Also, be prepared 
when hanging the hood to feed the electrical 
either through the top down, or use the hole 
provided in the back. You may drill a hole in the 
back, if necessary, to accommodate the electrical.  
(See Figure 2) 
6. Slide the hood up the wall with the transition 
sliding inside the duct cover, then secure the hood 
to the back wall (drilling through the back of the 
hood to locate studs).  Use the #10 x 2” long self-
tapping screws to secure the hood to the wall 
structure.  (See Figure 6) 
7. Once the hood is secure, attach the transition to 
the rectangular plate at the junction of the hood 
and duct cover with the screws that were 
removed from the transition.  (See Figure 6)
