Take the included ceiling plate and mark the
location by tracing along the inside.
Begin by locating the area of the ceiling
where the island mount range hood will be
installed at.
Using a rotary tool, cut a six-inch round hole
through the ceiling (only if required). Insert
2x4 wood supports into the ceiling. 2x4s will
be used to create a ceiling support system to
secure the island hood where studs are not
available.
The T-shaped 2x4s should align and meet
above the holes for the ceiling plate.
Arrange the 2x4s as shown. Two L-shaped
pieces should be placed across from each
other. T-shaped pieces are added next to
form a square base around the perimeter of
the exhaust hole. You may need roof access.
Using the included hardware, secure the
ceiling plate into the wooden support created
earlier. Ensure the screws are fastened into
the 2x4s.
Connect the included duct pipe to the air
damper.
Using the included hardware, secure the
ceiling plate into the wooden support created

the 2x4s.
