INSTALL THE DUCTWORK

NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

1.Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.

2.A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.

3.Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.

4.Install a roof or wall cap. Connect round metal ductwork to cap and work back to- wards hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.

1. Hang the hood from the bracket through the rectangular cut-outon the back of the hood. Cutout is larger than the bracket to allow for horizontal adjustment.

The bottom of the hood should be 24" to 30" above the cooking surface.

2.Secure the hood with mounting screws. Use

drywall anchors, provided, if wall studs or framing are not available.
