Step
We recommend that the vent hood
and/or duct cover be on site before
final framing and wall finishing to
more accurately locate the ductwork
and electrical service.
NOTE: If the top of the installation
location does not meet the soffit, use
a 6" or 12" duct cover accessory to
conceal the duct run.
•The soffit should be constructed
with 2x4’s.
• Determine the installation location.
