Installation
STEP 1
Read the Safety Instructions
It is very important to read the safety instructions on pages 4 and 5.
IMPORTANT: It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation clearances.
STEP 2
Unpack Range Hood and Prepare Tools
Carefully unpack the range hood and parts. Make sure all parts are included as shown on page 6.
DO NOT remove the protective lm covering the appliance until the installation is fully completed.
Consult a qualied and trained installer or check local codes for makeup air requirement, if any.
STEP 3
Plan Desired Location
Plan a desirable location that ts all requirements in the Safety and Installation sections of this manual. Plan where
and how the ductwork will be installed.
A straight or short duct run will allow the unit to perform most efciently. Long duct runs, elbows and transitions
willreducetheperformanceoftheunit.Eachelbowisequivalentto5to10feetofstraightrun.Propersizeduct
work should be 7” (178 mm) in diameter.
To reach a 9 foot ceiling make sure hood is installed 30 inches from cooking surface. If you have a ceiling
greater than 9ft, please visit anconahome.com to order a chimney extension.
If ductwork is already installed: ensure ductwork is free from debris and measures 7”
(178 mm)
(1” reducers may be
used but more than 1” will overwork the motor and the unit will not function properly).
STEP 4
Test Unit Functions
Plug the unit in and test all of the functions before installing.
WARNINGS:

This unit's damper is located 28" (712 mm) from bottom of range hood, therefore rear venting requires a
higher wall aperture for duct than standard. Please calculate position for duct on wall BEFORE installing
this product (See Height and Clearance illustration on page 9).
Only one flange is needed in the air duct system, either on top of the motor (provided) or outside.
