Determine Hood, Ductwork And Wiring Locations

Installation Instructions

STEP 1 DETERMINE HOOD, DUCTWORK AND WIRING LOCATIONS

•Use a level to draw the cooktop centerline location. Draw the line to ceiling height.

•Measure desired distance from the bottom of the hood to the cooking surface.

Note: If you are installing the hood with duct covers, be sure to read “Using Duct Cover Accessories” page 7. Exact installation height may be determined by use of one or more duct covers.

9-7/8"

Wood	22-1/2"
Support

•Determine bottom of hood location (Dimension A) by subtracting 12-1/2" from the desired installation height.

•Use a level to draw a straight horizontal pencil line indicating the bottom of the hood.

•From the line indicating the bottom of the hood, measure 20" up and draw another line for the location of the wood support. See illustration.

FOR VERTICAL (Straight Up) DUCTING:

•Use a level to draw a centerline from the bottom of the hood to ceiling or soffit.

•If venting out the ceiling, extend the centerline forward on the ceiling or soffit.

•Locate the centerline of a 10-1/2" hole on the ceiling or soffit by measuring 6" from the wall.

FOR DUCTING THROUGH REAR WALL:

•Measure 9-7/8" above the marked line for the top of the hood. At the centerline, draw a horizontal line to mark the location for a 10-1/2" diameter hole.

House Wiring Location:

•The junction box is fastened to the back of the hood on the right side.

•The recessed back side of the hood provides a large area for the house wiring to exit the wall and be routed to the rear knockout and junction box.

•The location for the house wiring depends on the installation height of the hood and the width of the hood. See shaded “Electrical Area” for locations.

•Remove junction box cover and knockout. Install strain relief.

Alternate Knockout Locations (for soffit installation)

If the installation requires, the junction box can be relocated from the back to the top of the hood. Remove 3 screws, align box to top knockout and secure with original screws.
