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.
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 the ceiling
support structure.
Remove the template.
4. Drill 4 - ¾e" (4.8 mm) pilot holes for mounting the upper
horizontal support.
Complete Preparation
Determine the required location for the home power supply
cable and drill a 1/2"(1.3 cm) diameter hole for wire access.
Run wire through the home power supply cable according to
the National Electrical Code or CSA Standards and local
codes and ordinances. There must be enough 1/2"conduit
and wires 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.
Use caulk to seal all openings.
Using a jigsaw or keyhole saw, cut a 10W' (26.0 cm) diameter
hole for the vent duct.
Attach the upper horizontal support bracket with 4 - 5 x
45 mm wood screws.

NOTE: Your range hood requires you to purchase either an
internal type or an in-line (external type) blower motor system.
For internal blower systems, there are blower motor mounting
parts in the blower motor installation packet that must be added
to the range hood prior to mounting the range hood to the ceiling.
See the "Install Range Hood Internal Blower Motor" section and
the instructions
supplied with the blower motor.
1. Before installing the range hood, remove the lower support
bracket that is secured with 4 screws on the inside of the
range hood.
