Use no. 10 - 2’’ flat head screws to secure the mounting strip to the drywall. Make sure to hit the wall studs.
CAUTION
Due to the weight of this hood, ensure that the wood strip is attached to all of the available studs (2 studs minimum for a 30’’ width hood, more as hood width increases); not into the drywall alone.
