INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
■ Lay out the vent duct system before installing the range
hood to determine the best routing for the vent duct.
■ It is recommended that the vent system be installed
before the range hood is installed.
■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper
clearance within the ceiling for exhaust vent.
■ Range hood is to be installed 24" (61 cm) min.
for electric cooking surfaces, 27" (68.6 cm) min.
for gas cooking surfaces, to a suggested maximum
of 36" (91.4 cm) above the cooking surface.
■ Remove film from metal surfaces as needed prior
to assembly.
■ Check your ceiling height and the range hood height
maximum before you install your hood.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall
or non-vented.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood.
Place covering over that surface. Place two 3" (7.6 cm)
high spacers (not included) onto the covered surface.
NOTE: Cover the spacers to avoid damage to the
range hood surface.
4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood
onto covered spacers.
Range Hood Mounting Screws Installation
1. Determine and mark the centerline on the ceiling
where the range hood will be installed, considering
the requirements for ceiling support structures. See
the “Location Requirements” section. Make sure the
range hood is centered over the cooking surface.
2. Tape template in place on the ceiling at the marked
centerline. The line for the front of the range hood
should be parallel to the front of the cooktop.
3. Use a pencil to mark the mounting screws, wire access,
and duct hole locations on the ceiling.
NOTE: Mounting hole locations should be into a ceiling
support structure capable of holding 80 lbs (36.6 kg).
Remove the template.
4. Drill 4 -
3
/
16
" (4.8 mm) pilot holes for mounting the
upper horizontal support.
Complete Preparation
1. Determine the required location for the home power supply
cable and drill a

2
" (1.3 cm) diameter hole for wire access.
2. Run
1
/
2
" (1.3 cm) conduit and wires or home power supply
cable according to the National Electrical Code or CSA
Standards and local codes and ordinances. There must
be enough

2
" conduit and wires or home power supply
cable from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to
make the connection in the hood’s electrical terminal box.
NOTE: Do not reconnect power until installation is complete.
3. For vented installations only: Using a jigsaw or keyhole
saw, cut a 6
1
/
2
" (16.5 cm) diameter hole for the vent duct.
4. Attach the upper horizontal support bracket with
4 - 5 x 45 mm #2 Phillips wood screws.
NOTE: Upper horizontal support screws must be into a
ceiling support structure capable of holding 80 lbs (36.6 kg).
WARNING

Use two or more people to move and install
range hood.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
