Installation (continued)
(3) Attach the horizontal rectangular
adapter to the back of the hood.
Then fasten the adapter using the
same screws from the shutoff plate.
(4) Create an opening for the adapter
and the power cord:
(a) If installing the hood with the
vertical/top adapter, measure
and cut an opening that is
slightly larger than the adapter at
the bottom of the cabinet. If the
cabinet has a recessed bottom,
use a 4” wide wood filler on both
sides. Also measure and cut an
opening for the power cord at the
bottom of the cabinet.
(b) If installing the hood with
horizontal/back adapter,
measure and cut an opening that
is slightly larger than the adapter
on the wall. Then measure and
cut an opening for the power
cord at the bottom of the cabinet.
(5) Hold the hood in position under the
cabinet. Make sure the adapter
connects with the ductwork and the
air damper opens and closes freely.
Stuck or half opened air damper
could reduce the hood’s
performance and generate loud
noise.
(6) The ductwork from the hood to the
roof cap or wall cap should be as
short and straight as possible.
Aluminum ducts with uniform sizes
are recommended.
(7) If an elbow is required, a minimum of
12” straight run is needed before the
elbow.
(8) Proper clearance is crucial for the
hood to be able to work at maximum
capacity as too much clearance
would decrease the hood’s overall
performance and too little may result
in fire hazard and cause damage to
the hood.
Hood Installation
1. Remove all protective films from the hood.
2. Hold the hood in position, reach inside the hood
from the bottom, insert and tighten the screws
for each pre-drilled mounting holes.
Caution:
Make sure the hood is firmly secured to the
cabinet before removing the support.
3. For a more secure installation, create and use
as many mounting holes as necessary.
Ductwork
1. After the hood is properly mounted, connect the
duct to the hood adapter.
2. Seal all connections with aluminum foil tape
and make sure it’s completely airtight.
3. Reinstall the bottom cover and tighten all
screws.
4. Reinstall the baffle filters.
After Installation Test Run
1. Plug the power cable to a power outlet nearby.
2. Turn on the hood and check if it’s working
properly. Should any issues arise, refer to Page
13 for troubleshooting.
