It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
range hood is installed.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Range hood is to be installed 24" (61.0 cm) minimum for
electric cooking surfaces, 30" (76.2 cm) minimum for gas
cooking surfaces, to a suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm)
above the cooking surface.
Check your ceiling height and the range hood height
maximum before you select your range hood.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall.
3. Select a at surface for assembling the range hood. Place
covering over that surface.
4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto covered
surface.
Range Hood Mounting Screws Installation
1. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the
range hood will be installed.
2. Based on the ceiling or soft height, determine the distance
“X” (24" [61.0 cm] minimum from electric cooking surface or
30" [76.2 cm] minimum to gas cooking surface, suggested
36" [91.4 cm] maximum) needed between the cooking
surface and the bottom of the range hood. To this distance,

" (43.5 cm) and draw a horizontal line (A) about 24"
(61.0 cm) long centered on the vertical centerline (B) at this
distance.
3. Following the illustrations in Step 4, mark points on each
side of the horizontal line as measured from the vertical
centerline.
4. Drill 3/32" (2.4 mm) pilot holes for installation into wood.
The screws provided for mounting this range hood must be
fastened into solid wood. Do not fasten only into sheet rock.
IMPORTANT: All screws must be installed into wood. If there
is no wood to screw into, additional wall framing supports
may be required.
5. Install the 4.2 x 9.5 cm mounting screws. Leave a 1/4"
(6.4mm) gap between the wall and the back of the screw
head to slide range hood into place.
Chimney Support Bracket Installation
1. Place two of the chimney brackets against the wall so that
their top edges are 1/16" (2.0 mm) from the ceiling or soft
and level. Mark holes.
2. Drill pilot holes.
If installing into wood, drill 4 - 3/32" (2.4 mm) pilot holes.
3. Attach each bracket to the wall with a 4.2 x 9.5 cm mounting
screw. Tighten screws securely.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
range hood.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
