C2000PS1-TW-28 Range Hood

Imperial Cal Products, Inc.
Read Before Starting Installation!
Inspect your range hood prior to installing!
Any cosmetic defects must be reported to us prior to installation.
Once this hood is installed, ICP will NOT accept any responsibility for any cosmetic blemishes, scratches or dents in the Canopy.
Save all original packaging if you wish to return for any reason!

FIRST:
Check your local building and electrical codes.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, Do Not use any two speed motor units with a Solid State control devise.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air to the outside. DO NOT vent exhaust air into spaces within wall, attics, ceilings, crawl spaces or garages. When venting to the outside make duct run as short and straight as possible. Avoid using elbows if at all possible. If elbows are used, we recommend that the first elbow is 24” from vent opening on the hood (minimum of 6”)and at least 24” between it and the next elbow. We strongly recommend no more then two 90 degree elbows in any duct run. No Performance Warranty when used above BBQ Style Grills.
DO NOT use duct pipe smaller than the outlet duct opening on the hood, this will reduce performance and void the warranty. DO NOT use flex ducting. Also, use either a Roof Cap or Wall Cap to end run. Be sure that all joints are taped securely in place.
It is essential to have the proper distance between the bottom of the range hood and the cooking surface below. In most cases the cooking appliance manufacturers specifications will establish the fire safe minimum distance required, although there are other factors to consider:

Local Building Codes
Cross directional air movements ie: open windows, air conditioning/heating outlets, cooling fans, etc.
Overall size of the cooking appliance and surrounding countertop surfaces.
Range hood model selected.

Minimum distance between cooking surface and the bottom of the hood is 30” and 36” is the maximum distance.
Keep in mind, increasing the distance will decrease the performance.
TWIN UNITS ONLY – Transitioning two pipes into one is NOT recommended. CFMs are reduced by 25% and the Performance warranty will be void.

For use when unable to terminate exhaust ducting to outside the structure. Figure 1:
Figure one shows the included elbow transition from 7” diameter round to 3 1/4” x 10” rectangular. This transition is used to return the filtered air back to inside the kitchen either through the canopy face of if applicable the soffit above. The customer must provide the appropriate length of straight 7” round ducting that connects the hood exhaust to the elbow transition.
Figure 2
Figure two shows a typical air exit terminating through the canopy face. A customer supplied, decorative 4” x 10” register cover face plate should be used to finish off the cut out opening.
Figure 3
Figure three shows a typical air exit terminating through the soffit face directly above the hood canopy. Again the customer must provide a 4” x 10” register face plate.
NOTE: The C2000 NV Unit comes supplied with charcoal filters that will accumulate the cooking grease and over time decrease the hoods performance. The amount and style of cooking will dictate how often the filters should be replaced. This type of filter is designed for replacement only. Contact Imperial to purchase proper replacement filters. The C2000SD2-NV requires one 50 Watt Halogen (Par 20) flood light that must be purchased separately.
