It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
range hood is installed.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Range hood is to be installed 24" (61.0 cm) min. for electric
cooking surfaces, 30" (76.2 cm) min. for gas cooking
surfaces, to a suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm) above
the cooking surface.
Check your ceiling height and the range hood height
maximum before you select your range hood.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place
covering over that surface.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
range hood.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto covered surface.
Range Hood Mounting Screws Installation
1. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the
range hood will be installed.
2. Based on the ceiling or soffit height, determine the distance
"X" (24" [61.0 cm] min. from electric cooking surface or
30" [76.2 cm] min. to gas cooking surface, suggested
36" [91.4 cm] max.) needed between the cooking surface and
the bottom of the range hood. To this distance, add
17¹⁄₈" (43.5 cm) and draw a horizontal line (A) about
24" (61.0 cm) long centered on the vertical centerline (B) at
this distance.

3. Following the illustrations in Step 4, mark points on each side
of the horizontal line as measured from the vertical centerline.

4. Drill ³⁄₃₂" (2.4 mm) pilot holes for installation into wood. The
screws provided for mounting this range hood must be
fastened into solid wood. Do not fasten only into sheet rock.
IMPORTANT: All screws must be installed into wood. If there
is no wood to screw into, additional wall framing supports
may be required.
