PREPARE DUCTWORK

Ductwork should already be punched through celling (or the wall if ceiling is not an option) and ready to hook up to the range hood before beginning installa- tion. See venting requirements on page 7 of this user manual.

If you are not venting to the outside of your home, be sure to install your charcoal filters before mounting the hood to the wall. See information on char- coal filters on page 5 of this manual.

WALL HOOD INSTALLATION

Plan where the ductwork will be located. Install proper-sized duct work, and roof or wall cap, depending on where you will be venting your hood. Recommended and most com- mon installations are shown in the venting diagrams above. Adjust your measurements to accomodate heights of ceilings, cabinets, or rangetops.

STEP 1 Install anchors and screws

Markings you’ll need:

♦♦ center line of installation area ♦♦ location of studs

♦♦ horizontal line 28” - 36” above the cook top (this is where the bottom of the range hood will be)

Use one panel of the cardboard ship- ping box to trace an outline of the hood.

♦♦ Place the cardboard panel against the range hood and trace an outline

♦♦ Find the center point of range hood (directly between mounting holes) and mark it on the cardboard panel

♦♦ Find the mounting points on the hood and mark them on the panel

♦♦ Transfer the panel to the wall, lining the bottom of panel to the horizontal line

♦♦ Line up the center point of the panel with center point on the wall

♦♦ Find mounting points on the card- board and poke holes through it, marking where you will mount the hood to the wall.

♦♦ Predrill holes where your mounting marks are, then insert wall anchors and mounting screws
