INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Instructions
1
INSTALL HOOD SUPPORT
IMPORTANT: Framing must be capable of
supporting 100 lbs.
• Locate at least 2 vertical studs at the wood
mounting location by tapping drywall with a
hammer or use a stud finder.
• Center the supplied wood horizontal support, left
to right, and below the marked line.
• Drill 1/8” pilot holes through the support, drywall
and into the studs. Secure the support to 2 or
more vertical studs with supplied wood screws.
IMPORTANT: Screws must penetrate at least
1-1/2” into vertical studs. Countersink screws into
support.
• Install mounting screws in the center of the wood
support, 13-1/6” from the centerline. The screws
should protrude forward 1/4”. This 1/4” gap will
provide clearance to hang the hood.
2
INSTALL TRANSITION
IMPORTANT:
Remove shipping
tape from damper and
check that damper
moves freely.
• Place the transition piece over the hood exhaust.
Secure transition to hood with 4 screws provided.
• Use duct tape to seal the connection.
3
INSTALL HOOD ONTO WALL
• Lift the hood and place over the wood support.
The top keyhole slots in the hood should engage
the protruding mounting screws. Allow the hood to
slide down into position.
• Pull house wiring through knockout at the rear or
top of the hood.
• Check to be sure the hood is level and centered.
The arrow shaped cutout in the back of the hood
allows viewing the marked centerline.
• Remove cover from junction box.
Drill Bottom Mounting Hole Locations
• Drill 1/8” pilot holes into the two lower mounting
holes. Enlarge the holes if they do not enter studs
to 3/8”. Tap anchors for wall fasteners into bottom
holes. Install screws by hand into the fasteners
to allow anchors to expand against the wall.
Remove screws.
• Using two large flat washers (supplied), install
wood screws or wall fastener screws, loosely, into
lower mounting holes. Do not tighten.
• Check hood level. Tighten upper screws. Tighten
lower mounting screws.
• For additional security, drive screws through the
original wood support screw holes in the back of
the hood.
