Installation Instructions
5 INSTALL CEILING BRACKET
The ceiling bracket must be installed when the duct cover is used to span 24″ or more height above the hood. The bracket will hold the decorative duct cover in place at the top.
Note: The ceiling bracket is not required when using only the 12″ section of the duct cover.
•Install the 2 small screws into the sides of the duct bracket. Remove the screws.
•Match center notch on the bracket to the centerline on the wall and flush against the ceiling.
•Mark the 2 screw hole locations.
•Drill 1/8″ pilot holes in marked bracket location.
•If pilot holes do not enter studs, enlarge the holes to 3/8″ and install wall fastener anchors.
•Secure the bracket to the rear wall with wood screws and washers. Use wall anchors if needed.
Note: Bracket has 2 sets of holes. Use larger holes for wall fasteners or wood screws with washers. Use smaller holes for wood screws with washers.
