The range hood should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (Or circuit breaker) box through metal electrical conduit.

Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edi- tion*, or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electri- cal Code Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 - latest edi- tion** and all local codes and ordinances.

Vent unit to outside of building, only.

2.At least two people are necessary for installation.

3.The hood is "tted with Screws and Drywall Anchors suitable for most surfaces, consult a Quali"ed Installer, check if they perfectly "t with your cabinet/wall.

4.Do not use $ex ducting.

5.COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air $ow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

6.Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than speci"ed CFM of air movement.

The speci"ed CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for speci"c requirements in your area.
