6.Mark wall with horizontal line 1" above highest and 1" below lowest fastener location.
7.Find studs behind drywall by tapping wall or using a stud finder. Mark the center of the studs with a vertical line to the right and left of the marked fastener location.
8.Note: all fastener location must span the studs otherwise proceed as follows:
Cutout drywall along marked lines. Install each necessary between studs firmly flush with already existing stud front. Make sure all mounting screws will anchor to added studs. Replace drywall and refinish.
9.Determine and make all necessary cuts in the wall for the vent system. Install the vent system before the canopy hood. See „Venting methods“ and „Dimensions and clearance“ paragraphs.
Note - for Ductless - recirculating - installations: Vent system is not required.
10.Determine the required height for the conduit and cut a
Run wires through hole according the National Electrical Code or CSA Standards and local codes and ordinances.
Note: If a
There must be enough power supply cable from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the connection in the hood’s Junction box/es.
Use caulking to seal all openings.
Do Not turn on power until installation is completed.
11.Remark center line and hood bottom on same location as before and tape template on wall as in step 4 above.
12.Mount the lower support bracket with wood screws (supplied in mounting hardware kit) on locations marked on template, then remove template.
13.Install duct cover support bracket to wall flush to ceiling with drywall anchors supplied (the duct cover support bracket should be installed about 1/8“ (3mm) away from the ceiling).
For Ductless (recirculating) installations
Install the deflector (available as an extra kit) under the duct cover support bracket.
14.Note: disregard this step if intending to install a in- line blower.
Purchase and install the Internal blower (see paragraph „Before installing the hood - Parts not supplied“ for model reference).
