Advance Planning ADVANCE PLANNING POWER SUPPLY Ductwork Planning •This hood is equipped for 8″ round ductwork. •Determine the exact location of the vent hood. •Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors. This hood is not designed for a recirculating venting operation. •Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible. For satisfactory performance, duct run should not exceed 100 ft. equivalent length for any duct configurations.
Advance Planning DUCT FITTINGS Use this chart to compute maximum permissible lengths for duct runs to outdoors. NOTE: Do not exceed maximum permissible equivalent lengths! Maximum duct length: 100 foot for 8″ round duct Flexible ducting: If flexible metal ducting is used, all the equivalent feet values in the table should be doubled. The flexible metal duct should be straight and smooth and extended as much as possible. DO NOT use flexible plastic ducting.
Installation Preparation TOOLS AND MATERIALS REQUIRED 1/4″ pivoting hex socket (NOT SUPPLIED) 1″ conduit (for remote mounting only) Needle-nose pliers Aluminized duct tape 3/8″ socket/ nut driver Silicone Pencil and tape measure Safety glasses Electric drill and appropriate bits Wire nuts 8″ ducting and caps as needed Spirit level Gloves Knife Step ladder Plumb line Flashlight Phillips and flat blade screwdrivers Wire cutter/stripper Strain relief REMOVE THE PACKAGING CAUTION: Wear gloves t
Installation Preparation PARTS PROVIDED Locate the parts packed with the hood. CHECK INSTALLATION HARDWARE Hood liner (packed in separate carton) Count screws/ components. Screws shown actual size.
Wall Installation Preparation 5-1/2″ from rear wall to centerline DUCTWORK, WIRING LOCATIONS Determine the exact location of the insert sleeve. Mark the exact centerline location. The ceiling structure must be capable of supporting the weight of the insert sleeve (approximately 100 pounds) and any inadvertent user contact loads. • Measure from the top of the cooking surface to the bottom edge of the insert sleeve. Add insert sleeve installation height. Mark that location.
Island Installation Preparation CONSTRUCT CEILING SUPPORT (for Island Installation) Plan the Location of the Hood and Ductwork The ceiling structure must be capable of supporting the weight of the insert sleeve (approximately 100 pounds) and any inadvertent user contact loads. • Use a plumb bob to check the location. The countertop/cooktop below the insert sleeve must be centered with the insert sleeve. • The insert sleeve should extend beyond the front and rear edge of the cooking appliance.
Installation Preparation REMOTE MOUNTING OF THE CONTROL (WIRED) REMOTE LOCATION FOR CONTROL The control can be removed from the hood and installed in a backsplash or countertop. • A cover plate is provided to cover the opening in the hood when the control is removed. • A 30-ft. length of 4-wire cord is supplied to accommodate most installations. Because only 30-ft. of cord is provided, careful consideration must be given to the location of the remotely mounted control.
