Installation Preparation
PREPARE THE WALL
Hood Body
.
.
Put a protective covering over the surface below
the locution of the hood to protect from dirt and/
or damage.
Determine and mark the centerline on the wall
(draw line up to the ceiling) where the range
hood will be installed. Bused on the ceiling
height, determine the distance 24" required min,
36" recommended max (×)needed between
the cooking surface (B) and the bottom of the
hood. To this distance, add 12-5/8" and draw a
horizontal line (A)about 24" long centered on the
vertical centerline (C).

Align the top edge of the mounting bracket with
the horizontal line (A).Align the center notches of
the bracket with the centerline (C)and murk the
center of the bracket holes. Remove the bracket
to drill the 2 canopy mounting anchors into the
wall at the markings. Place the mounting bracket
buck on the wall and install the 2 mounting

4. Draw a second horizontal line (D) that is 1" added
from the (×) distance. Drill a hole into the wall with
a 9/32" drill bit at the intersection of the horizontal
line (D) and vertical centerline (C).Insert a duct
cover anchor.
Duct Covers and Power Supply
1. Place one of the duct cover brackets against
the wall so that its top edge is 1/16" from the
ceiling and level. Align the center notches of
the bracket and the centerline (C) and mark
the centers of the bracket holes. Remove
the bracket to drill the 2 holes for installation
with a 9/32" drill bit, and insert the duct cover
anchors. Place the bracket back on the wall
and install the 2 mounting screws into the
anchors. Tighten screws.
2. Place the other duct cover bracket on the
wall so that its top edge is 15-1/2" from the
ceiling and level. Align the center notches of
the bracket and the centerline (C) and mark
the centers of the bracket holes. Remove
the bracket to drill the 2 holes for installation
with a 9/32" drill bit, and insert the duct cover
anchors. Place the bracket back on the wall
and install the 2 mounting screws into the
anchors. Tighten screws.
3. Determine and mark where the hole will
be drilled for the power supply cable to be
run through the wall. The center of the hole
can be located 4" to the left or right of the
centerline (C) while remaining between 4" and
13" down from the ceiling. Once the center of
the hole is marked, drill a 1 1A" diameter hole.
