PART 1 Planning the Installation (continued)
NOTES:
1. The hood liner uses 120VAC, 60 Hz power. Supply wires should be installed
by a qualified person(s) and must meet all electrical codes. The SGHL30 &
SGHL36 Hood Liners are designed for use with 6" diameter duct, the
SHL36 & SHL42 are designed for use with 8" diameter duct and the SHL48
is designed for use with 10" diameter duct. Use only rigid metal duct.
2. For a truly quiet kitchen ventilation system add a Fantech "duct silencer" (LD
Series) to the installation. The simple addition of an inline duct silencer
between the hood liner and the remote fan can typically reduce the
"perceived" sound level of the system by more than 50%. For more infor-
mation visit www.fantech.net.
3. A quality cap with built in backdraft damper or an inline damper is recom-
mended to minimize cold air return through the duct when the product is
not in use.
4. Always install ventilation products with an approved wall or roof cap.
5. Duct performance is improved by using round, smooth metal duct work
instead of rectangular.
6. If multiple elbows must be used, ensure that there is a minimum of 24" of
straight duct between any two elbows.
7. Avoid "S:" or back to back configurations caused by adjacent elbows.
8. Route ducting to terminate at the hood liner.
WARNINGS: Following Are Manufacturer's Suggestions. Always Observe Local
Building Codes.
1. Liners installed in custom canopies constructed of combustible materials,
should be installed with the combustible material structure a minimum of
36" above the surface of the heating element.
2. Liners installed in custom canopies constructed of non-combustible materi-
als, should be installed with the non-combustible material structure a min-
imum of 30" above the surface of the heating element.
3. Follow all instructions regarding minimum safe clearances and installation
location. Failure to do so may result in a safety hazard or fire.
4. To reduce the risk of fire use only metal ductwork.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT REMOTE MOUNT BLOWER (see page 3)
Look on page 3 for a list of Fantech fans recommended for use with the SHL & SGHL.
Series Range Hood Liners. Some models remotely mount in the attic. Other mod-
els are used when installation requires a roof mount or wall mount fan.

PART 3 Securing the Liner
SECURING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Because the professional series liner was designed for custom applications, no mounting holes have been pre-drilled.
This allows you to attach the liner in the areas of the canopy which have ample support and backing.
2. You must secure the liner through both right and left sides, through the back and through the top.
3. Remove the filters. Mark and drill screw holes through the liner as required for custom canopy.
Secure the liner by driving screws (provided by others) through the liner into the framing and backing.
CONNECTING TO THE VENT PIPE:
1. Insert the tabbed end of the galvanized start collar into the round hole in the outside top of the liner.
2. Bend all of the tabs firmly in places against the inside top of the liner. Sheet metal screws should be placed equidistant through 3 or more tabs.
CAUTION: for safety of the person cleaning this liner, neatly cover the well-flattened tabs with 2 or more layers of metal tape.
3. Attach the other end of the start collar to the range hood vent with a minimum of 3 equidistant screws and metal tape.

PART 2 Electrical Connection
WARNINGS:
1. Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before proceeding.
2. Verify that the power supply matches the ratings found on the appliance
data label before proceeding.
3. The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all times when elec-
trical power is applied.
4. Do not ground the appliance with the neutral (white) house supply wire. A
separate ground wire must be utilized.
5. Failure to complete electrical connections properly may result in damaged
or non-functional systems. Follow instructions carefully to ensure proper
installation.
• It is the owner's responsibility to ensure that a qualified electrician performs
the electrical connection of this appliance. The electrical installation, includ-
ing minimum supply wire size, must comply with the National Electric Code
ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 (or latest revision) and local codes and ordinances.
• A copy of this standard may be obtained from: National Fire Protection
Association,1 Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. A 15 to 20 amp electrical service is recommended for proper electrical sup-
ply. Before determining, calculate amp ratings based on the product label
found on the liner and the ventilator. (Always observe local building codes).
2. Always use a dedicated circuit.
3. Line load is calculated by adding the amperage of the halogen lights to the
rated amperage of the ventilator (either in-line or roof top). If the ventila-
tor is rated in watts rather than amps, divide the watts by 120 and this will
give you the amperage rating.
4. The Fantech liner is supplied with a 5.0 amp variable speed fan control.
Make sure the rated amperage on the ventilator does not exceed 5.0 amps.
For larger ventilators rated above 5.0 amps, contact Fantech Customer
Service for recommendations.
5. The Fantech liner has been designed to accommodate several different
motor speed controls, (for example ThermadorTM model CTR3-Q) Always
consult the manufacturer's installation instructions when substituting
control switches.
6. Wire connections (see internal wiring schematic):
• Black –120 VAC from electrical panel (black)
• White- Neutral from electrical panel (white)
• Green – Ground from electrical panel (green)
• Red- 120 VAC variable control to 120 VAC of ventilator
CAUTION:
The neutral wire (usually white) for the ventilator must connect to the same neutral
wire that comes from the electrical panel to the liner. It is recommended to run a
white neutral wire from the liner's white neutral wire along the same path as the red
wire from the liner's variable speed control to the ventilator.
