Preparation before Installation
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. (Figure 1)
A straight, short venting 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 any protective film off the hood.
Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe sections.
If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross framing lumber for secure installation. Refer to Table 1 and measurements on Page 5 to decide the level of the lumber. (Figure 2)
Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with eight (3/16” x 3/8”) screws (included).
Loosen
If necessary, remove the rubber stand on the back of the hood and discard. (Figure 4)
