INSTALLATION GUIDE AND USER MANUAL
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Don't attempt installation without the proper electrical and technical knowledge.
• Always turn off power switches before maintenance or replacing light bulbs.
• Be careful not to let detergent enter electrical components when cleaning.
• Avoid cooking with open flames under the hood to prevent fire hazards.
• The product might have sharp metal edges. Use adecuate glvoes while installing and cleaning
Range hoods must be ventilated to the outdoors, except for non-vented (recirculating) installations.
Do not ventilate the range hood into an attic or other enclosed areas.
Do not use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
Keep the length of the range hood exhaust and the number of elbows to a minimum to ensure maximum performance.
Use no more than three 90° elbows.
Ensure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of straight duct between elbows if more than one elbow is used.
Do not install two elbows together.
Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the
range hood.
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof openings around the cap.
The size of the vents should be uniform.
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems that exceed a specied
CFM of air movement in your area.
MAKEUP AIR
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air ow. To reduce the conduction of
outside temperatures, a thermal break should be included in the vent system. Position the damper on the cold air side
of the thermal break. The thermal break should be located as close as possible to where the vent system enters the
heated portion of the house.
COLD WEATHER INSTALLATIONS
The hood exhaust is located on top of the unit, and it is recommended to use a straight pipe through the roof for optimal
performance. If you prefer to vent through the back wall, you can do so by adding a 90° elbow. However, this may reduce
eciency and increase noise levels. Additionally, using exhaust ducting with a diameter of less than 5.91” (150 mm) or
opting for at ducting will further decrease the extraction eciency and increase the noise level.

INSTALLATION MANUAL WALL-MOUNTED HOOD
Congratulations on your purchase of a wall-mounted hood!
KUCHT has developed a series of range hoods based on assimilating the advantages of high volume of air, lower
noise and elegant appearance.
Follow these instructions carefully to ensure a safe and successful installation.
TOOLS AND MATERIALS NEEDED
• Power drill & drill bits
• Screwdriver
• Tape Measure
• Masking Tape
• Pencil
• Level
• Stud finder
• Ducting kit (not included)
• Metal or Aluminum HVAC Tape
• Mounting hardware provided with the hood and wall anchors
• You will need another person to help you to lift and hang the hood
IMPORTANT NOTE:
• Your range hood does not come with ducting. It's best to use solid ducting made of galvanized steel or
another suitable rigid metal for quiet operation and efficient airflow.
• Keep the length of ductwork under 40 feet and minimize the use of elbows to maintain airflow.
• Make sure there's at least 12 inches (305 millimeters) of vertical airflow above the hood before making any
90° turns. Avoid using more than 3 elbows, as each one reduces airflow.
• Do not use reducers on ducting smaller than the hood's specified diameter (usually 6", 7", or 8" depening
on your specific model).
• Check any existing or additional dampers to ensure they work correctly.
• It's recommended to consult an HVAC or installation professional to determine the best ducting option for
your kitchen, as each layout is unique.

STEP 5: CONNECT THE HOOD
• Ensure the ducting is routed properly to vent outside without any kinks or obstructions.
• Attach the appropriate ducting to the hood's exhaust outlet.
• Secure the ducting in place using clamps or HVAC aluminum duct tape.
• Run the electrical cord up the chimney, outside of the ducting, and plug into a dedicated power outlet on the
wall. An outlet behind the chimney, to either the left or right, is ideal.
• If you're not experienced with electrical work, consider hiring a licensed electrician for this step.
• Once connected, carefully tuck the wires into the hood's housing to prevent interference.
• Affix the decorative cover with two tapping screws on the hood body.
• Attach the baffle filters.
STEP 6: FINAL CHECK
• Double-check all connections and screws to ensure they are secure.
• Test the hood to ensure it functions properly.
• Try the different settings on the control panel
• Peel white or blue plastic protective film off the hood.
• Clean your fingerprints with a soft cloth.
NOTE
FOR 48” AND 60” MODELS WITH DUAL MOTOR YOU WILL NEED A
TRANSITION PIECE TO CONNECT BOTH EXHAUST TO YOUR VENTING DUCT.
MEASURE THE SIZE OF EACH EXHAUST, AND THE VENTING DUCT DIAMETER TO
GET THE CORRECT PIECE. YOU CAN ALSO USE AN HVAC TEE OR WYE AT THE
EXPENSE OF SOME MINOR PERFORMANCE.
FOR THIS TYPE OF CONNECTION, ALWAYS USE GALVANIZED METAL, ALUMINUM
OR ANY HEAT RESISTANT MATERIAL.
MAINTENANCE
• Make sure to pull out the plug and cut off the power before maintenance to ensure your safety.
• Clean the inside and outside of the range hood with warm water containing neutral detergent, then dry them
with a piece of dry cloth. Do not scrub them with rough materials such as cleansing ball to avoid damages to
the surface. Put on gloves to avoid injuring your hands when cleaning the inside. The cleaning can be done
once half a month to a month.
• Do not crush the wind wheel when cleaning the inside of the wind track of the wind wheel to avoid the
deformation of the wind wheel. Otherwise, the movement will be increased, which will result in more noise and
influence the effect of absorbing the oil-smoke.
• CLEANING OF THE FILTER SHALL BE DONE. Compared to mesh or charcoal-based filters, baffle filters are
easy to clean and maintain. They don’t get clogged easily and do not require frequent cleaning or replacement.
They are also made with composite metal materials, which are relatively easy to clean. They can be easily
removed from the range hood, washed with soap and water, or placed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. Do
not clean it with combustible detergent such as banana oil or gasoline.
• Final Check: Before turning the power back on, double-check that everything is properly reassembled and that
there are no loose or missing parts.
• Keep the user manual handy for future reference.
• Familiarize yourself with operational and maintenance instructions for optimal performance.
• By following these steps regularly, you can keep your range hood clean and functioning effectively for years to
come.
• You can get replacement parts such as lamps or filter on www.kuchtcare.com
