Installation Instructions
Mounting Height, Clearance, & Ducting
A minimum of 6” round duct is recommended to maintain maximum air flow eciency.
Always use rigid type metal ducts only. Flexible ducts could restrict air flow by up to 50%.
Also use the ducting calculation sheet (on page 8) to compute total available duct run when using
elbows, transitions and caps.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns. If long duct run is required,
increase duct size.
If turns or transitions are required; install as far away from hood duct output and as far apart,
between the two as possible.
Minimum mount height between range top to hood bottom should be no less than 24”.
Maximum mount height should be no higher than 34”.
It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result
in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will lose its
performance and eciency.
If available, also refer range manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended hood
mounting height above range. Always check your local codes for any dierences.
For shipment and installation damages:
► Please fully inspect unit for damage before installation.
► If the unit is damaged in shipment, return the unit to the store in which it was bought for repair or
replacement.
► If the unit is damaged by the customer, repair or replacement is the responsibility of the customer.
► If the unit is damaged by the installer (if other than the customer), repair of replacement must be
made by arrangement between customer and installer.

Installation Instructions
Ductless Recirculation
Ductless recirculation is intended for applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be
installed. When converted, the hood functions as a recirculating hood rather than an exhaust hood.
Fumes and exhaust from cooking are drawn and filtered by a set of optional charcoal filters. The air is
then purified and re-circulated back within the home.
We recommend to ALWAYS exhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing new
duct work, if possible. The hood is most eective and ecient as an exhaust hood. Only when the
exhaust option is not possible should you recourse to converting the hood into a recirculating hood.
When converted to be a recirculating hood, a set of charcoal filters are required on top of its standard
grease filter set. Order according to its part number below. The grease filters are intended to capture
residue from cooking, and the optional charcoal filters help to purify fumes exhausted from cooking
for recirculation.
Recirculating Kit Installation (required if no ducting is used)
For detailed installation instructions, please refer to the manual included with the recirculating kit.
The kit includes the charcoal filters, charcoal filter brackets, and air diverter plate.

Run 6" ducting from top of hood and secure to air diverter plate.
2. Remove the grease filter(s) from hood. Place charcoal filter(s)
over the back side of the grease filter(s). For BVE models, if you
have a 30" hood, use scissors to cut the charcoal filters along the
perforated line.
3. Secure charcoal filter(s) to back side of the grease filter(s) by (4)
brackets for BMI, and (3) brackets for BVE. For BVE models, if you
have a 30" hood, the charcoal filter brackets will also need to be
resized by bending them at the perforated line until the smaller
piece snaps o.
4. Re-install grease filter(s).
5. Charcoal filters must be replaced every 200 hours of use (or
approximately every 3 to 4 months based on an average of 1 - 2
hours of daily cooking time).
DO NOT WASH CHARCOAL FILTERS. Charcoal filters may need to be
changed more often depending on cooking habits.

CFM Selector
Some local codes limit the maximum amount of CFM a range hood can move. CFM Selector allows
you to control the maximum blower CFM without the need for expensive make up air kits. CFM
Selector enables the installer to easily set the maximum blower speed to the CFM level, 290 CFM. The
usage of CFM Selector may not be necessary for your installation. Please check your local codes for
CFM restrictions.
Hood must be disconnected from the main power prior to
performing the conversion instructions listed below. Failure to do
so could result in personal injury or damage to the product.
CAUTION
After re-positioning the jumper and powering on the hood, the
CFM cannot be changed again.

Enabling CFM Selector
To enable CFM Selector:
1. Before hood installation, gain access to PC board by
following the steps shown on FIG. F for BMI and FIG. G
for BVE.
2. Change plastic jumper positioning as shown in FIG. H to
set the desired maximum blower CFM.
3. Re-install PC board and continue with hood installation.
4. Remove the appropriate foil CFM sticker included with
the hood literature and place inside the hood body
below the wiring diagram or in another clearly visible
location.
To verify if your installer enabled CFM Selector:
1. With hood o, hold the POWER button for 5 seconds. If
all three fan speed indicators illuminate = default max.
CFM. If two fan speed indicators illuminate = max. 290
CFM.
2. When CFM Selector is enabled, the number of blower
speeds will be reduced.
3. There should also be a foil label located inside the hood
body near the wiring diagram that indicates the blower
CFM.
- Remove the glass canopy by (4) screws.
