Advance Planning INSTALLATION CLEARANCES OPTIONAL DUCT COVER ACCESSORIES These vent hoods are designed to be installed onto a wall or beneath a soffit or cabinet. • Install these hoods* 30" Min. to 36" Max. above the cooking surface. *These hoods may be installed 24" min. above a gas or electric drop-in style cooktop. Always observe the 30" to 36" clearance when installed over any professional style cooktop or range. Decorative duct covers are available in 6" and 12" heights.
Advance Planning ADVANCE PLANNING POWER SUPPLY Ductwork Planning • These vent hoods are equipped for 10" round ductwork. For best performance, use 10" round ductwork on the 48" wide hoods. 30" and 36" hoods may be transitioned to 8" round. • This hood may be vented vertically through upper cabinets, soffit or ceiling. A duct transition piece is supplied for vertical exhaust. Use locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall. • Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
Advance Planning DUCT FITTINGS Use this chart to compute maximum permissable lengths for duct runs to outdoors. Note: Do not exceed maximum permissable equivalent lengths! Equivalent Length* Duct Piece 10" round to 8" round Round, straight Quantity Used 10 ft. 1 ft. (per foot length) Maximum recommended duct length for these hoods: 150 feet 3-1/4" x 24" straight 1 ft. (per foot length) Flexible ducting: If flexible metal ducting is used, all the equivalent feet values in the table should be doubled.
Advance Planning USING DUCT COVER ACCESSORIES We recommend that the vent hood and decorative duct cover (if used) be on site before final framing and wall finishing. This will help to accurately locate studs, ductwork and electrical service. • Read these examples carefully to determine the need for one or more 6" or 12" duct covers. To avoid unsightly gaps, plan the hood installation height for duct cover use.

Installation Preparation PARTS PROVIDED Locate the parts packed with the hood. Wood Support with Original Screws Duct Transition with Damper 2 Stainless Steel Grease Filters (3 filters with 48" models) Heat Lamp (2 with 48" models) Allen Wrench For Implement Rods HARDWARE PACKAGE Locate and check contents. Screws shown actual size. 2 (3/16") hollow wall anchors with screws to secure hood to the wall at the bottom 2 Implement Rods and 4 Stand-offs 2 Grease Filter Trays (3 supports with 48" models.
Installation Instructions STEP 1 DETERMINE HOOD, DUCTWORK AND WIRING LOCATIONS • Use a level to draw the cooktop centerline location. Draw the line to ceiling height. • Measure desired distance from the bottom of the hood to the cooking surface, 30" min. to 36" max. Top of Hood Note: If you are installing the hood with duct covers, be sure to read “Using Duct Cover Accessories” page 7. Exact installation height may be determined by use of one or more duct covers.
Installation Instructions STEP 2A INSTALL HOOD ONTO WALL IMPORTANT: Framing must be capable of supporting up to 150 lbs. Install Transition Onto Top of Hood SKIP THIS STEP IF INSTALLING BENEATH A SOFFIT OR CABINET, GO TO STEP 2B. • Locate at least 2 vertical studs at the wood support. • Center the supplied wood support, left to right and below the 15-3/8" marked line. Duct Transition IMPORTANT: Remove shipping tape from damper and check that damper moves freely.
Installation Instructions STEP 2B Alternate Mounting Method INSTALL HOOD TO SOFFIT OR BENEATH CABINETS SKIP THIS STEP IF USING WALL MOUNTING METHOD When necessary, the hood may be installed so that it is supported by the soffit. • The soffit should be constructed with 2 x 4’s. • Determine the installation location on the wall. • Continue the centerline forward on the bottom of the cabinet or soffit.
Installation Instructions STEP 4 CONNECT ELECTRICAL STEP 3 CONNECT DUCTWORK • Install ductwork, making connections in direction of airflow as illustrated. • Secure joints in ductwork with sheetmetal screws. • Wrap all duct joints with duct tape for an airtight seal. • Use duct tape to seal the flange connection. Reach inside the hood and push the damper up to be sure it moves freely. Verify that power is turned off at the source.
Installation Instructions STEP 6 INSTALL MOTOR STEP 7 INSTALL FILTERS Outlet Attachment Slot Spring Clip • From the inside of the hood, slip motor into the attachment slot on the left. • Rotate motor upwards until it snaps into the spring clip on the right. • Secure the motor to the hood with the machine screw and lock washer. (Screw is marked with red paint.) • Place filter drip trays into the rear of the hood.
Installation Instructions STEP 8 INSTALL IMPLEMENT RODS Screw Stand-offs Into Hood Use Allen Wrench to Secure Rod to Stand-offs • Use a flat blade screwdriver to install stand-offs into the bottom of the hood. • Align implement rod to stand-offs with the screw hole towards the inside of the hood. Secure the rod to the stand-offs with the supplied Allen wrench. • Follow the same procedure on the opposite side. FINALIZE INSTALLATION • Install the supplied infrared bulb(s).
