Preparation Before Installation

Figure 1

 

 

NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD, PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.

•Decide the location of the venting pipe from the hood to the outside. Refer to Figure 1.

•A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to perform more efficiently.

•Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long run as possible. This may reduce the performance of the hood.

•Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper operation before installing.

•Important: Peel protective film off the hood, if any.

•Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.

CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary to install the hood, turn off the power in an electric range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE. And use a protective covering to protect cooktop and/or countertop from damage.

Custom Hood Preparation

1.The custom hood frame must be sized to shape and the weight of the insert. Refer to Measurements and Diagrams on Page 13.

2.It must have a sturdy base (1/2 inch thick plywood recommended) to sustain the weight of insert.

3.If an optional liner will be installed, the side of the wood cabinet must be sturdy (1/2 inch thick plywood recommended).

4.It is recommended to install a rear and front stud support. Refer to Figure 2. The stud supports are located 1-1/2” up from the base of the wood frame.

Liner Installation

5.The custom/wood hood must have a sturdy base to accommodate the cut-out for the inset. The base must be recessed to accommodate the height of the liner (See liner dimension on Page 14)

6.Secure the liner to the bottom of the base using screws (not included) appropriate for the size and material of your wood frame.

7.Position the rear section of the liner so that it aligns with the back edge of the custom wood frame. Use a pen to trace the outline of the pre-cut area. Remove the liner and proceed to Hood Preparation Before Installation on Page 6.

8.Install the liner with 5 screws (not provided).
