the hood must be mounted directly to a wall, secure the hood to wall studs.
All wiring must comply
with local codes and the unit must be properly
grounded.
The hood is connected
to a 110-120vAC
lighting circuit (15
amp) in the circuit breaker or fuse box.
This range hood is "Convertible"
- it may be installed as a ducted or as a
non-ducted
unit.
IF THE RANGE

•
Purchase
non-ducted
(duct-free)
charcoal
filter Model BPQTF.
IF THE RANGE
HOOD
IS TO BE DUCTED:
•
Ductwork can be installed vertically or horizontally.
•
Duct runs should be as short as possible.
•
Avoid the use of elbows.
•
Use duct tape at all joints.
•
Do not use duct smaller than the discharge
on the hood.
•
For 7" round ductwork installation, use 7" round damper, Model BP87
(purchased
