Installation Specifications Recirculating Configuration ■ All duct work materials (including screws and duct tape) must be purchased separately by the customer. Recirculating kits AVDH1 and AVDH2 contain the parts necessary to convert a DHW series hood to a recirculating configuration in instances where exhausting the hood outside the building is not practical or desired. The kit consists of a top cap and charcoal filter(s).
Installation Specifications Duct Work Design Tips ■ Wherever possible, reduce the number of transitions and turns to as few sharp angles as possible. Two staggered 45° angles are better than one 90°. ■ Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as possible, and as much space between bends as possible. ■ For best performance, use round duct instead of rectangular, especially when elbows are required. ■ If multiple elbows are used, try to keep a minimum of 24 inches straight duct between them.
Installation Instructions Installation Preparation NOTE: If installing the hood in the recirculating configuration (recirculating kit # AVDH1 or AVDH2), consult the instructions that come with the kit before starting installation. 1. Attach the hood junction box to the top of the hood using two machine screws as shown. 2. Remove the ship- Remove tape ping tape holding the damper flaps closed. Make sure all the flaps open and close freely before proceeding. 3.
Installation Instructions If mounting the hood to drywall: ■ Drill three appropriate sized pilot holes for the mounting hardware being used. The drywall mounting hardware must be purchased separately. Hanging the Range Hood 1. Lift the hood up on both sides and put the mounting hole on the top of the hood over the lip of the mounting bracket. Gently lower it into place. Mounting bracket Mounting bracket 2.
Installation Instructions Connecting the Duct Work WARNING Do not use screws to attach the duct work to the hood exhaust outlet. Use duct tape only. Screws may prevent the damper flaps on the top of the hood from opening. If installing the unit with a recirculating kit, skip to Final Electrical Installation. Otherwise, install the duct work between the hood exhaust and the previously installed duct work. Attach the duct to the hood exhaust with duct tape alone.
Installation Instructions 4. Carefully put the chimney over the top of the duct work extending out of the top of the hood, taking care not to scratch the surfaces. Make sure the wiring is tucked in behind the chimney. Installation Checklist WARNING 5. Move the chimney up toward the ceiling. Line up the holes on the side of the chimney, above the vents, with the holes on the side of the chimney mounting bracket. • 6.
