INSTALLATION
WARNING: To reduce the risk
of fire, use only metal ductwork.
1. Decide the placement of the
ductwork between the hood
and the outside of the home.
Your island hood has a top
discharge which will run
vertically.
2. When not installing a remote
fan, always install a roof cap
or wall cap. Connect rigid
round metal ductwork to the
roof cap and work back
towards the hood location.
3. Use duct tape to seal the
joints between the ductwork
sections.
4. A transition with backdraft
damper is included with your
island hood. It is
recommended that the
enclosed backdraft damper
be used in all installations.
PREPARATION
1. When installing a duct cover,
the duct cover must be
installed prior to the hood
installation. See Figure 14
for duct cover installation
instructions.
2. Remove the baffle filters from
hood shell. (See Figure 12)
3. The hood is shipped with the
transition attached. The
transition is shipped upside
down in the top of the hood
and must be removed then
reinstalled.
4. Detach the transition from the
hood by removing the (4)
shipping screws. DO NOT
discard these screws. These
shipping screws will be
needed for the reinstallation
of the transition to hood.
5. Invert the transition (the
round collar points away from
top of hood). Use the
shipping screws removed
from step 4.
6. When installing a remote fan,
drill a 7/8” hole through hood
framing for conduit wiring
where needed. See Figure 13
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• Do not place electrical wiring
within the duct work itself.
• All island hoods must exhaust
to the outdoors.
