INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Installation Preparation
NEW CONSTRUCTION, PRE-PLANNING, OR REMODELING
NOTE: For existing construction, skip to the section below.
■ For ducted installation through the top, the 8"
diameter hole for the duct in the ceiling must be
centered 6-1/4" away from the finished rear wall in
the installation space
■ The hood junction box knockout is located 10-1/2" to
the left from center of the hood. Ensure enough wire
length is available to make electrical connection.
DETERMINE HOOD, DUCTWORK AND WIRING LOCATIONS
• This hood can be installed onto the wall or
underneath the soffit or cabinet.
• For installing the hood to soffit or cabinet, refer to
page 18 for alternate mounting method.”
• A wall mounting template is included with the product
for ease of installation. Follow the instructions below
if the template is not being used.
• Measure desired distance from the bottom of the hood
to the cooking surface, 24" minimum over electric
range or 30" minimum over gas range, and 36"
recommended maximum.
• Use a level to draw a horizontal line indicating the
bottom of the hood.
• Use a level to draw the cooktop or range centerline
location.
• Measure 9” up from the horizontal line for the bottom
of the hood. Draw another horizontal line to indicate
the bottom of the installation bar.
For Vertical (Straight Up) Ducting:
• If venting out the ceiling, extend the centerline
forward on the ceiling.
- Measure 6-1/4" from drywall to mark center point
for an 8" diameter duct hole on the ceiling.
- Cut an 8" dia. duct hole on the ceiling
Venting Through a Soffit or Cabinet:
• Follow the same procedure for vertical (straight-up)
ducting through the top of the soffit or cabinet.
For Ducting Through Rear Wall:
NOTE: In order to vent through the rear wall, a 90º
elbow is needed and installed above the hood damper.
• Measure the height from the top of the hood to the
center of the elbow.
• Draw a horizontal line on the wall intersecting the
centerline.
• Cut an 8" diameter hole at the intersection point for
ducting.
