Installation:
Installations (refer to Page 4 for parts):
1. Measure the distance between stove top and the bottom of range hood. A distance of 24 to 30” is
recommended with a minimum of 30” for gas stove tops.
2. Using references in Height & Clearance on Page 5 and
Measurements and Diagrams on Page 16, mark the leveling point of the hood. Position two mounting
screws on the wall, leaving 1/8” space away from the wall.
3. Position the chimney-mounting bracket directly above the hood-mounting bracket, mark the leveling
points and secure it using two mounting screws.
NOTE: Use threaded drywall anchors only when mounting the hood on sheet rock. Mounting the hood
on wall studs or lumbars is highly recommended.
4. Attach the hood-mounting bracket to the back of the hood with six screws as shown in Figure 3.
5. Align hood-mounting bracket to the screws on the wall and hook hood into place as shown in Figure 4 and
Figure 5. Tighten screws to secure hood to the wall.
CAUTION: Make certain the range hood is secure before
releasing!
6. For safety purpose, pre-drilled mounting holes are provided through the back of the hood. For a more
secure installation, use as many mounting holes as needed to secure from the inside of hood.
7. Use 6” round steel pipe (follow building codes in your area) to connect the exhaust on the hood to the
duct- work above. Use silver tape or duct tape to make all joints secure and air tight. Refer to Figure 7.
SAFETY WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. This range hood must be properly grounded. Make sure
this is done by qualified electrician in accordance with all applicable national and local electrical codes.
Before connecting wires, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel to prevent power
from being switched on accidentally.
