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 -
" (4.8 mm) pilot holes for mounting the upper
horizontal support.

cable and drill a ½" (1.3 cm) diameter hole for wire access.
