TO INSTALL RANGE HOOD
For most efficient operation, the top of the hood should be
approximately 66 inches (137 6 cm) from the floor. See
Figure 5 for examples of two typical ductwork
installations. Choose the best method for your installation.
1. Mark locations for ventilating duct and electrical
wiring from dimensions grven in figure 1.
2. Cut holes at marked locations to accomodate
ventilating duct and electrrcal wiring. Allow %” (1.91
cm) extra on ventilating opening toward the front of the cabinet directly above the hood (See Figure 4). Be sure to minimize openings through the outside walls or ceiling. These will have to be sealed later.
3.Run the wrre through the wall or cabinets according
to the National Electrical Code and applicable local
codes. DO NOT turn power on until installation is complete.
4.Remove the screws holding the junction box cover (See Figure 3).
5.Lift the hood into positron and mark the hole locations on the cabinet for each of the four keyhole mounting slots.
6.Remove the hood and start all four screws in the
center of the narrow neck of the keyholeslot marked on the cabinet bottom (See Figure 2).
7.Install proper ductwork.
8.Lift the hood into position simultaneously feeding
the electrical wire through the knockout.
9.Tighten the four mounting screws to secure the hood to the cabinet. Be sure the screw heads are in the narrow neck of the keyhole slot (Figure 2).
10.Complete electrical wiring in the juction box
according to the National Electrical Code and
applicable local codes.
11.Replace junction box cover.
12.Seal holes around ventilating pipe and wiring
passing through ceiling oroutsidewall with caulking
or insulation to prevent energy loss.
NOTE: It has been found that a large part of the energy loss of the average home is due to outside air infiltrating
the structure. Seal around duct work where it passes through outside walls or ceiling. Seal around electrical wiring and be sure the damper is working properly.
