Professional vent hoods
Restaurant-style, tapered- and straight-sided hoods
Select a professional hood with straight or tapered sides, or
a dramatic restaurant-style hood to match the width of the
range or cooktop. All professional hoods are available in 48",
36" and 30" widths.
All models can be installed onto a wall or beneath a soffit.
Decorative duct covers are available for all models. The duct
cover conceals the ductwork running from the top of the
hood to the ceiling or soffit. Duct covers are available in
6" or 12" heights. Stack one or more duct covers to reach
your ceiling height.
Island hoods
Both models are shipped with a support frame and duct cover
for ceiling heights of 7' 11" up to 8' 5".
Accessories are available to reach ceiling heights from
8' 6" to 10' 4". These accessories include telescoping support
frames and decorative covers.
Optional accessories must be ordered with the hood and be
on-site before final framing and wall finishing.
A mounting template is provided with each hood to help
accurately locate the hood above the cooking surface and to
locate the mounting frame and screws.
For a finished appearance, a top cover is supplied with both
hoods. Install the top cover whenever the top of the hood
will be visible.
Structural suppor t
Restaurant-style, tapered- and straight-sided hoods
All professional hoods weigh over 100 pounds; therefore
adequate structural support must be provided. Hoods
must be secured to vertical studs or to studs in the soffit.
It is strongly recommended that the vent hood and duct
cover(s) if used, be on-site before final framing and wall
finishing. This will help to accurately locate the ductwork
and electrical service.
Final installation will be much easier if the hood is installed
before the range or cooktop underneath.
Island hoods
These vent hoods are heavy. Adequate structural support
must be provided. The ceiling structure must be capable of
supporting the weight of the hoods and any inadvertent user
contact loads (approximately 300 lbs.).
Duc twork planning
Restaurant-style, tapered- and straight-sided hoods
These vent hoods are equipped for 10" round ductwork. For
best performance, use 10" round ductwork on the 48"-wide
hoods. 36" and 30" hoods may be transitioned to 8" round.
Hoods may be vented vertically through upper cabinets,
soffit or ceiling. The blower outlet is 8-1/8" x 8". A duct
transition to 10" round with damper is supplied for vertical
exhaust. Use locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally.
Plan the shortest and straightest route for venting exhaust
to the outdoors.
Use metal ductwork only.
For satisfactory performance, duct run should not exceed
150 feet equivalent length for any duct configuration. Refer
to the duct fittings chart in the installation instructions.
Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the exterior
opening. Order the wall or roof cap and any transition
needed in advance.
Island hoods
These vent hoods are equipped for 10" round rigid metal duct.
Maximum equivalent duct length is 150 ft. Install a roof cap
with damper at the exterior opening.
Electrical requirements
These vent hoods must be supplied with 120V, 60Hz, and
connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
On wall-mounted hoods, the back side is recessed, providing
a large area for the house wiring to exit the wall and be routed
to the rear knockout and junction box.
The exact location for the house wiring depends on the
installation height and size of the hood. See installation
instructions for details.
On wall-mounted hoods, the junction box is fastened to the
back of the hood on the right side. If necessary, the junction
box can be relocated to the top of the hood.
On island hoods, the junction box is located on the top of the
hood and is concealed by ductwork.
