The vent hood must be installed between the 24″ required minimum and 36″ recommended maximum above the cooking surface. The hood installation height above the cooking surface depends upon ceiling height and duct cover limitations. The telescopic duct cover conceals the ductwork running from the top of the hood to the ceiling. For supplied duct cover ceiling heights, see table on page 5.
NOTE: Installation height should be measured from the cooking surface to the lowest part of the hood. This hood must be installed onto a wall. It can be vented to the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating operation. For recirculation operation, see Recirculation Install Plannina.

ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning

• This hood is designed to be vented vertically through the ceiling. Use 6″ round duct. Use locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.
• Use metal ductwork only.
• Determine the exact location of the vent hood. Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors. To maximize the ventilation performance of the vent system:
  1. Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows.
  2. Maintain a constant duct size.
  3. Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any leaks.
  4. Do not use any type of flexible ducting.
• Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the exterior opening. Purchase the wall or roof cap and any transition and length of duct needed in advance.
• When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit cafeappliances.com for available makeup air solutions.

PREPARE THE WALL

Hood Body

1. Put a protective covering over the surface below the location of the hood to protect from dirt and/or damage.
2. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall (draw line up to the ceiling) where the range hood will be installed. Based on the ceiling height, determine the distance 24″ required min, 36″ recommended max (X) needed between the cooking surface (B) and the bottom of the hood. To this distance, add 12-5/8″ and draw a horizontal line (A) about 24″ long centered on the vertical centerline (C).
3. Align the top edge of the mounting bracket with the horizontal line (A). Align the center notches of the bracket with the centerline (C) and mark the center of the bracket holes. Remove the bracket to drill the 2 canopy mounting anchors into the wall at the markings. Place the mounting bracket back on the wall and install the 2 mounting screws with 2 washers into the anchors. Tighten screws.
4. Draw a second horizontal line (D) that is 1″ added from the (X) distance. Drill a hole into the wall with a 9/32″ drill bit at the intersection of the horizontal line (D) and vertical centerline (C). Insert a duct cover anchor.

Duct Covers and Power Supply

1. Place one of the duct cover brackets against the wall so that its top edge is 1/16″ from the ceiling and level. Align the center notches of the bracket and the centerline (C) and mark the centers of the bracket holes. Remove the bracket to drill the 2 holes for installation with a 9/32″ drill bit, and insert the duct cover anchors. Place the bracket back on the wall and install the 2 mounting screws into the anchors. Tighten screws.
2. Place the other duct cover bracket on the wall so that its top edge is 15-1/2″ from the ceiling and level. Align the center notches of the bracket and the centerline (C) and mark the centers of the bracket holes. Remove the bracket to drill the 2 holes for installation with a 9/32″ drill bit, and insert the duct cover anchors. Place the bracket back on the wall and install the 2 mounting screws into the anchors. Tighten screws.
3. Determine and mark where the hole will be drilled for the power supply cable to be run through the wall. The center of the hole can be located 4″ to the left or right of the centerline (C) while remaining between 4″ and 13″ down from the ceiling. Once the center of the hole is marked, drill a 1 ¼” diameter hole.

PREPARE HOOD FOR INSTALLATION

Remove the grease filter from the unit and set aside. The grease filter is removed by pressing the handle in front of the filter. When replacing, make sure that the filter is properly positioned with the handles in front and visible.

Vented Installations

2. Remove and properly discard the protective plastic wrapping from the hood and grease filter. For more cleaning options refer to Owner’s Manual.
3. Go to Mount the Glass Range Hood section.

Non-vented (ductless) Installations
NOTE: A recirculation duct, extensions, and bracket are all included with the hood and are necessary for recirculation installation. A charcoal filter, not included, is also needed for recirculation installation. The damper is not installed on the unit with recirculation installation.

1. Install the recirculation duct extensions to the recirculation duct.
2. Attach the recirculation duct mounting bracket to the recirculation duct using the duct cover screw supplied with the hardware package.
3. Fit the recirculation duct with extensions over the vent exhaust outlet and push down to seat on outlet. Attach the vertical duct work to the top of the hood. Check that the recirculation duct is in the proper orientation (hole facing towards the back of the hood).
4. Go to Mount the Glass Range Hood section.

MOUNT THE GLASS RANGE HOOD
NOTE: If ductless (recirculation) installation, follow steps 1-6. If ducted installation, follow steps 1-3.

1. Using 2 or more people, lift the range hood and place on the hood mounting bracket. Make sure the bracket fully engages the holes on the hood body.
2. Place a mounting screw into the duct cover anchor at the center slot provided on the bottom of the back side of the hood. Securely tighten.
3. Secure the hood to the mounting bracket by fastening a duct cover screw in hole (B) on both sides of bracket shown previously
4. Remove the top duct cover bracket from the wall.
5. \Align the top edge of the duct cover bracket with the top edge of the recirculation duct mounting bracket that is attached to the recirculation duct. Align the center notches of each bracket. Place both brackets back onto the wall in the previous position. Install the 2 mounting screws into the anchors and securely tighten.
6. Attach the CHARCOAL FILTER (not included).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

1. Remove the cover from the field wiring compartment. Feed the Power Supply Cable in through the hole in the compartment.

2. Connect the Power Supply Cable to the range hood junction box through the hole that was drilled in the “Preparing the Wall” section on page 6.
   Attach the White lead of the power supply (A) to the White lead of the range hood (D) with a wire nut. Attach the Black lead of the power supply (B) to the Black lead of the range hood (C) with a wire nut. Connect the Green (E) (Green and Yellow) ground wire under the Green grounding screw.
