INSERT INSTALLATION
Preparation Before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE VENT
OPENING.
• Decide the location of the venting pipe from
the hood to the outside. Refer to Figure 1.
• A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to
perform more efficiently.
• Try to avoid as many transitions, elbow, and
long run as possible. This may reduce the
performance of the hood.
• Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing.
• Important: Peel protective film off the hood, if
any.
• Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe
sections.
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is
necessary to install the hood, turn off the power
in an electric range at the main electrical box.
SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS
RANGE. And use a protective covering to
protect cooktop and/or countertop from
damage.
Custom Hood Preparation
1. The custom hood frame must be sized to the
shape and the weight of the insert. Refer to
Measurements and Diagrams on Page 11-12.
2. Install 6” Round Plastic Collar using 2 attached
screws. Refer to Figure 2.
3. It must have a sturdy base (1/2 inch thick
plywood recommended) to sustain the weight of
the insert.
4. If an optional liner will be installed, the side of
the wood cabinet must be sturdy (1/2 inch thick
plywood recommended).
5. It is recommended to install a rear and front stud
support. Refer to Figure 3. The stud supports
are located 1-1/2” up from the base of the wood
frame.
