Installation Details
1) Read all instructions thoroughly before beginning installation. Note: These instructions apply to standard hoods only.
Custom hoods may require additional specication consideration.
2) When installing an island range hood, it is recommended that the bottom edge of the hood be located no more than
30” above the cooking surface. Exceeding recommended mounting height may compromise performance.
3) Load-bearing framework in the ceiling is necessary for installation. Additional framework
construction may be required. Do not attach an island hood to a structure that cannot support
twice the weight of the hood.
If applicable, remove the duct cover from its packaging and remove the hood-mounting
screws from the base of the duct cover. Install the duct cover to the load-bearing framework
in the ceiling using appropriate hardware through the four inside corner mounting anges
on the top of the duct cover.
4) Install the duct(s) from the outside of the home down to the location of the exhaust outlet(s) on the top of the transition
plus 1”. This will allow the transition to engage 1” inside of the duct. Consult the connection diagrams (on next page)
for further details on exhaust outlet placement.
Use duct tape to seal all joints. A complete listing of available Vent-A-Hood ducting materials is listed on the back page
of this instruction sheet.
Transition height is as follows:
Island Dual Blower (T200): 8” round duct connects to 9” tall VP565 transition (included).
5) Prepare a protective surface on the oor or countertop for the hood. Remove the hood from its packaging and place
it upside-down on the protective surface for access to the inside of the hood.
6) Remove the blower shields (A) by loosening the two brass screws on the bottom of the shield. Gently close the back
draft dampers from the top side of the hood. To remove the blower housings, unsnap the suitcase latches (B) (one on
each side of the housing). The housings should be pulled forward and gently “tipped” to clear the blower wheels and
then out of the hood.
