PREPARE THE WALL
Hood Body and Power Supply
1. Put a protective covering over the surface
below the location of the hood to protect from
dirt and/or damage.
2. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall
(draw line up to the ceiling) where the range
hood will be installed. Based on the ceiling
height, determine the distance 24" required min,
36" recommended max (X) needed between the
cooking surface (B) and the bottom of the hood.
To this distance, add 7" and draw a horizontal
line (A) about 24" long centered on the vertical
centerline (C).
3. Mark 2 points on each side of the horizontal line
(A), 5-1/2" from the vertical centerline (C). Drill the
canopy mounting anchors into the wall at the
markings. Install the 2 mounting screws into the
anchors, leaving a 1/4" gap between the wall
and the back of the screw head. (You will place
the hood body onto these screw heads.)
4. Draw a second horizontal line (D) that is 1-1/4"
added from the X distance. Draw a third
horizontal line (E) that is 4-5/16" added from the
X distance.
5. Mark 2 points on each side of the horizontal
line (D), 7-7/8" from the vertical centerline (C).
Drill the 2 holes for installation with a 9/32" drill
bit, and insert the duct cover anchors.
6. Determine and mark where the hole will be
drilled for the power supply cable to be run
through the wall. Mark a point on the left side
of the horizontal line (E), 6-1/4" from the vertical
centerline (C). Drill a 1-1/4" hole at this mark.

Duct Covers
1. Place one of the duct cover brackets against
the wall so that its top edge is 1/16" from the
ceiling and level. Align the center notches of
the bracket and the centerline (C) and mark
the centers of the bracket holes. Remove
the bracket to drill the 2 holes for installation
with a 9/32" drill bit, and insert the duct cover
anchors. Place the bracket back on the wall
and install the 2 mounting screws into the
anchors. Tighten screws.
2. Place the other duct cover bracket on the
wall so that its top edge is 10-1/2" from the
ceiling and level. Align the center notches of
the bracket and the centerline (C) and mark
the centers of the bracket holes. Remove
the bracket to drill the 2 holes for installation
with a 9/32" drill bit, and insert the duct cover
anchors. Place the bracket back on the wall
and install the 2 mounting screws into the
anchors. Tighten screws.
