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, elbows, 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 designed according to the
shape and the weight of the hood. Refer to Measurements
and Diagrams on Page 13.
2. A sturdy base (3/4 inch thick plywood recommended) is
needed to sustain the weight of hood.
3. It is recommended to install front & rear stud support (not
included). Refer to Figure 2. For safety purposes, extra
installation holes on the side of the hood
are provided.
Prepare the side stud support if needed.
4. Determine and mark the centerlines on the base of the wood
frame where the hood will be installed.
5. Location
the proper location for the Power Supply Cable.
Make a wiring access hole using a drill bit. Install the wire
cable and seal the gap around hole.
6. Cut out the opening where the hood will be installed. (Figure
3)
