VENTING REQUIREMENTS: • • • • • • • Vent system must terminate to the outside (Roof or side wall). DO NOT terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area. DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps. Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/ aluminum vent is recommended. DO NOT use plastic vent. Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow. Calculate the following figures before installation: 1. Distance from the floor to the ceiling 2.
IMPORTANT: • • • • • • • • A minimum of 6” round or 3-1/4 x 10” rectangular duct (purchased separately) must be used to maintain maximum airflow efficiency. Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airflow when connecting to provided duct. Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions and caps. ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns.
VENTING METHODS: • This range hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall. • Vent work can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed. IMPORTANT: • NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS: IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. It is the customer’s responsibility to contact a qualified electrical installer. If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate. A 120-Volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, fused electrical supply is required on a separate 15-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.
PREPARATIONS: Advanced Preparations: • Be familiar with the controls of the range hood by reading through Range Hood Operations, Page 13. • Place the range hood on a flat, stable surface. Connect the range hood to a designated standard outlet (120-Volt, 60Hz, AC only) and turn on the range hood. Verify all operations of the range hood by referring to Range Hood Operations.
INSTALLATION: Installations (refer to Page 4 for parts): NOTE: Use threaded drywall anchors only when mounting the hood on sheet rock. Mounting the hood on wall studs or lumbars is highly recommended. For consumer safety reasons, mounting screws and anchors have not been supplied with this range hood. Different wall and cabinetry construction methods require specific types of screws and wall anchors.
INSTALLATION CONTINUE: Step 4: Venting • Fix the damper on the top vent of hood with 4 screws (requires screw C). If ventilation system is equipped with an external air duct with a different diameter, apply a reduction fitting. However, for maximum performance and safety, a 6” round ducting is recommended. (See Figure # 2) 3 2 A Step 5: Mounting the hood on the wall • Hang the range hood on the hooks of the lower mounting bracket. (See Figure # 3) • Screw the range hood to the wall (requires screw A).
INSTALLATION CONTINUE: Step 6: Installing filters • To install filters for the following four steps (See Figure # 6): - Angle the filter into slots at the back of the hood. - Push the button on handle of the filter. - Release the handle once the filter fits into a resting position. - Repeat to install all filters. 6 Step 7: Test hood • Turn power On in control panel. • Check all lights and fan operations. • Make sure to leave this Installation Manual for the homeowner.
