ADVANCED PLANNING

Ductwork Planning

• Carefully review the ductwork installation method as described later in this instruction as well as the hood insert installation instructions.

Wall Framing for Adequate Support

• This hood is heavy. Adequate structural support must be provided. Hood must be secured to vertical studs in the wall.
• It is strongly recommended that the hood and hood insert be on site before final framing and wall finishing.
  This will also help to accurately locate the ductwork and electrical service.

UNBOXING

• Cut Straps
  

• Remove Top
  

• Remove Sleeve
  

• Remove Hood

STEP 1 DETERMINE HOOD AND DUCTWORK LOCATIONS

MARK LOCATION OF WOOD SUPPORT

• Use a level to draw a cooktop centerline location.
  Draw the line to ceiling height.

• Measure desired distance from the bottom of the hood to the cooking surface, 30” min. to 36” max.

• Use a level to draw a straight horizontal pencil line indicating the bottom of the hood.

• From the line indicating the bottom of the hood, measure 16” up and draw another line for the location of the wood support.

• From the line indicating the bottom of the hood, measure 28” up and draw another line for the location of the top of the hood. See illustration.
  

FOR VERTICAL (Straight Up) DUCTING:

• Use a level to draw a centerline from the bottom of the hood to ceiling or soffit.
• Extend the centerline forward on the ceiling or soffit.
• Mark the center of a 8-1/2” hole on the ceiling or soffit by measuring 8-1/2” from the wall.
  

FOR DUCTING THROUGH REAR WALL:

• Measure 4-3/4” above the marked line for the top of the wood support. At the centerline, mark location for a 8-1/2” diameter hole.

HOUSE WIRING LOCATION:

• Locate junction box above the wood support and to the left of the centerline as shown in the illustration.

STEP 2 INSTALL HOOD TO WALL

Mount Wood Support to Wall

• Locate at least 2 vertical studs at the wood support.

• Center the supplied wood support, left to right and below the 16” marked line. Use the center hole in the wood support as guidance.
  

• Mark and drill two 3/16” holes through wood support to match stud locations.

• Secure the wood support to 2 or more vertical studs, using 2 long, square drive screws
  IMPORTANT: Screws must penetrate at least 1” into vertical studs. Countersink screws in support.
  NOTE: The two supplied mounting screws must remain in their original shipping location. These screws are positioned to engage the keyhole slots in the back of the hood.
  

• Adjust depth of supplied mounting screws in the wood support until they protrude 1/4” forward. This 1/4” gap will provide clearance to hang the hood.
  IMPORTANT: Framing must be capable of supporting up to 150 lbs.

• Place the hood over the wood support. Be sure the mounting screws engage the keyhole slots in the back of the hood. Tighten the screws. Confirm hood position is correct.
  

• Install additional 2 short screws to secure the hood to the wood support.

• Install 2 medium Phillips screws at top inside of the hood into studs. Chose the appropriate holes that line up with studs.

• Install 2 medium Phillips screws at bottom inside of hood into studs.  Choose the appropriate holes that line up with studs.
  

STEP 3 INSTALL HOOD INSERT INTO HOOD

Refer now to the installation instructions for the Custom Hood Insert (ZVC48) with the following exceptions:

• Disregard any reference to building a custom wood canopy.
• Disregard any reference to the Hood Liner. It is not required when using this hood.
• For duct planning you will need to refer to these instructions as some of  the dimensions are different.
• You may remote mount the control for the Hood Insert if desired.
• Skip Step 1 (Insert Hood Liner). You may discard the Liner, it is not required.
• Start at Step 2, Connect Electrical.
• Be sure to follow the remainder of the Custom Hood Insert installation instructions to properly fasten the Insert to the Hood.
• Pay special attention to the step that says to push the Insert firmly up prior to driving screws. This will prevent any visible gaps between the Insert and the Hood.
