ISLAND HOOD DUCT WORK INSTALLATION
Cut a 10” diameter opening in
the ceiling to accommodate the
duct work necessary for proper
ventilation.
Transfer the overall dimensions
of the hood top plate onto the
nished ceiling/unnished
surface. e top plate width is
13”, but overall width will vary
with the size of the hood. (See
Page 4 - Figure 2)
Construct the frame using wood
2x4’s. Due to the weight of the
hood, structural support is
necessary. (See Figure 3)
Locate and mark the center of
the hood. Attach two wood
2x4’s across the top of the ceiling
joists. (See Figure 3)
Drill four 3/8” holes in the 2x4’s
to match the pattern on the top
of the hood. (See Figure 3)
Remove hood bae lters and
loosen hood lter-bank prior to
installation of hood. See page
10 for direction. (See Figure 12)

SCREWS. (See Figure 3)
Connect 10” round duct-work
to the hood transition using
sheet metal screws or duct tape.
Complete all electrical
connections. (See Wiring
Diagram on Page 14)

WARNING
!
Framing must be structurally
tied together and attached to
the ceiling joists to provide
enough strength to support the
weight of the hood and the
internal blower, if applicable.
WARNING
!
Island hoods are very heavy!
A minimum of three installers
are required to lift the hood to
the ceiling.
WARNING
!
When making any electrical
connections, make sure
electrical power is turned o
at the power source (or circuit
breaker) before proceeding.
