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 12 to decide the level of the lumber.
(Figure 2)
-
Loosen hood-mounting brackets at the back
of the hood, adjust brackets and tighten
screws as shown in Figure 3.
-
If necessary, remove the rubber stand on
the back of the hood and discard.
