Cabinet Preparation for Hood Support
Mount the hood so that the bottom of the hood is between 24"-30" above the
stovetop.
Warning! When cutting or drilling into wall or cabinet, be careful not to cut
existing electrical wiring.
1. If the bottom of the cabinet is recessed above the bottom of the cabinet
door, then it is necessary to install wood strips on each side of the
recessed area on the bottom of the cabinet where the range hood will
be mounted. The wood strips should line up with the 4 keyhole slots on
the top of the range hood. Fasten the wood strips with wood screws
about 3" in from each end.
Note: The thickness of the wood strips should be slightly more than the
recessed dimension. The length should be cut to size.
2. Measure and mark the electrical wiring opening in the wall or the
cabinet. If the hood is to be vented, also mark and measure the duct
opening in the wall or cabinet.
Selecting the Venting Direction
The range hood can be used for either horizontal, vertical or ductless air discharge.
Your range hood is supplied with a 3-1/4" x 10" damper frame for a transition
piece from the hood to the ducting. Below is a brief ducting installation description.
Your installation will depend on whether there is an existing ducting or whether you
need to install a ducting run. For the best performance, use the shortest possible
ducting path and the least amount of elbows when discharging horizontally or
vertically.
Vertical Discharge – Vertical discharge is the most common method of hood
installation. If your kitchen has an attic space above, the
ducting may be run through the cupboard and the attic to
a roof cap. Another option, if your kitchen has a soffit
above the cabinet, is to run the duct up into the soffit and
then discharge the air horizontally through the outside wall
to a wall cap. For vertical discharge remove A.
Horizontal Discharge - If the range is located against an outside wall, then
horizontal discharging is ideal, provided there are no obstructions such as wall
joists or places where openings are difficult to make.
If a wall cap is used directly off the back of the hood,
special care must be taken to ensure that the damper in the
damper/duct connector on the hood and the damper in the
wall cap do not interfere with each other when the range
hood is operating. This could result in either inadequate air delivery or back drafts.
If this condition exists, remove the hood damper flap. Sometimes when using a wall
cap, it is easier to duct vertically and than to use an elbow. For horizontal
discharge remove B.
