Installing Enclosure Panels

Before installing the enclosure panels, make sure
the hood is hung in position with all the ductwork
attached and all fire system and electrical connections
completed.
1. Position the end enclosure panels on the hood, and
clamp into place with clamps provided or tack-weld
the panels into place.
2. Fasten the end enclosure panels to the wall; method
depends on wall construction. (Fasteners provided
by others).
If the hood is a double island, bolt the end enclosure
panels together. (Fasteners provided by others).
3. Position the front enclosure panel(s) on the hood,
and bolt to the end enclosure panels with the 5/16 in.
bolts provided in the hardware package.
4. Tack-weld or clamp the front enclosure panel(s)
to the hood. If clamps are used, they must be
positioned 4 in. (10.16 cm) from the ends and in the
center of the front enclosure panel.
5. To allow for ease of cleaning, caulk the external
seams with NSF Approved silicone caulk
(GE SCS1009, or its equivalent). The caulk is not
provided.

Double Island Canopy Style Hoods

NOTE
Before hanging the hoods, please verify the hood
marks to ensure the correct hood is hung on the
correct side.
A double island hood is created by installing two
wall style hoods back to back. Use the installation
procedure described for single island canopy hoods;
install and level both hoods. After leveling, secure the
hoods together by tack-welding and/or bolting the rear
mounting brackets together. Double island hoods may
also be provided with a U-Channel to seal the seam
between the two hoods.
Installing U-Channel Strip
1. After the hood is hung in position and leveled, apply
caulk to the inside edge of the double island clip.
2. Position and install the clip by tapping into position
along clip (friction fit).
3. Caulk edges to seal out grease and allow for ease
of cleaning. Caulk with NSF Approved silicone caulk
(GE SCS1009 or its equivalent). The caulk is not
provided.
