Ducting Options

Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual. All res-possibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages, or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined.

Preparation

  • Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.
  • Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings.
  • However, a qualified technician must verify the suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
  • Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for the exhaust vent.

CAUTION

  • For gas cooktop & range installations: Mount the hood so the bottom is at least 3O” (76.2 cm) above the cooking surface.  For electric/induction cooktop & range installations: Mount the hood so the bottom is at least 24” (61 cm) above the cooking surface.
  • There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recommend mounting the hood no greater than 36” (91.4 cm) above the cooking surface. For every inch (2.54 cm) above 36” (91.4 cm), fume and moisture capture efficiency diminishes at an increasing rate and may not deliver an acceptable level of ventilating performance.
  • This hood is intended for household use.
  • PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS. Check your ceiling height and hood height before selecting your hood.

Prepare the Location

  • Disconnect power.
  • Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall exhaust.
  • Select a flat surface for assembling the hood insert. Place covering over that surface.
  • It is recommended that the vent system be installed before the hood is installed.
  • Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for the exhaust vent.
  • The Hood insert should be installed a minimum of 24” (61 cm) above an electric cooktop surface and 30” (76.2 cm) above a gas cooktop surface. The maximum recommended height over both cooktops is 36” (91.44 cm).
  • Check that all installation parts have been removed from the shipping carton.
  • Using 2 or more people, lift hood insert onto the covered surface.
  • Remove the filters. See the “Cleaning” section.
