IMPORTANT NOTE: There must be a minimum 10" (254) opening in the ceiling to accommodate the ductwork necessary for proper ventilation.

Layout the dimensions of the back of the wall chimney hood on the wall (shaded area of illustration below). The back of the hood dimensions will vary with the size of the hood. For dimensions of your model, refer to the illustration and chart on page 12.

Use minimum 2" x 4" lumber to build the framing. Proper structural support is required to accommodate the weight of the hood.

Mark the center location of the hood. Install 2" x 4" blockings between wall studs. Refer to the illustration below.

Measure and mark a level line on the wall above the cooking surface for the wood mounting strip.

Use four #10 x 2" (51) flat head screws to secure the mounting strip to the wall studs and blockings.

Framing must be tied together and to ceiling joists to provide enough structural strength to support the weight of the hood and internal blower, if applicable.

Due to the weight of the hood, ensure that the wood strip is attached to all available wall studs and blockings.
