Installation instructions Meeting Electrical Codes • • The owner shall verify that all electrical requirements are met by the qualified electrician servicing this appliance. The electrical installation (incl. minimum supply-wire size and grounding) must comply with the National Electric code ANSI/NFPA (or latest revision), and local codes.
Preparation and Setup This diagram shows the top and rear locations for wire access into the hood. See Wiring Diagrams at the end of this document. Top Access Rear Access Installing the Electrical Source In compliance with local codes, install an electrical junction box near the hood’s wiring access holes. Suggested Junction Box Area Hood 1. In the cabinet or wall, drill 7/8” holes through which to pass the electrical wiring. English 19 Installation instructions 2.
Installation instructions Meeting Installation Requirements • • • • • • • • The hood must be at least as wide as the cooktop. All dimensions must meet or exceed specified minimums. Dimensions given are minimum clearances unless otherwise noted. All contact surfaces between the hood and cabinetry/walls must be sturdy, solid, and at right angles. Install the hood so it can be removed for service. WARNING Follow local codes during planning/installation. Contact the local building department for details.
Planning the Ductwork WARNING • • • • To prevent combustion by-products, smoke, or odors from entering the home, and to improve efficiency, tape all duct joints securely. Range hoods may impede proper flow of smoke and combustion gases from furnaces, gas water heaters, and fireplaces. To avoid drawing lethal gases into the home, follow the manufacturer’s directions for these devices and NFPA/ASHRAE recommendations.
Installation instructions Duct-Length Calculation Table The type of duct determines the hood’s maximum straight duct length. To determine your maximum length, start with the duct run’s total max. length, then subtract all of the ductwork equivalent lengths. (See the chart.) Duct Type Max. Duct Run 8-in. Round 60 feet 10-in.
Ductwork Tips • • • • • • • • • • • • Try to minimize transitions/turns/sharp angles (e.g., two staggered 45° angles are better than one sharp 90° angle). Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as possible; keep as much space between bends as possible. For best performance, use round instead of rectangular ducting, especially when elbows are needed. If multiple elbows are used, try to keep at least 24 in. of straight duct between each elbow. Avoid using “S” or back-to-back adjacent elbows.
Installation instructions Planning the Mounting Location Holding brackets and hardware are provided to support the hood so you can permanently anchor it to the wall. The illustrations below show the purpose of the holding brackets and the support behind the wall.
Marking the Exhaust-Duct Centerlines These measurements/marks help center and level the hood, and mark the duct cutouts. Have a marking tool, tape measure, and level ready. Dual Exhaust Single Exhaust Cooktop Top-Exhaust Centerline 1. Position the hood as it will be when installed (e.g., for a top-vent installation, set the hood with the vents on top). 2. Measure the distance from the edge of the hood to the center of the exhaust port. 4. Extend the line down 10 inches (25.4 cm). 5.
Installation instructions Installing the Support Brackets CRITICAL: To avoid alignment issues during final installation, the brackets must not be over/under/off the centerline.
Blower Rotation (Rear Exhaust) IMPORTANT: Perform this procedure before you hang the hood. WARNING Install the hood only if the electrical service meets the hood’s specifications; the owner shall verify proper installation. Observe all local codes during installation. Contact your local building department for details. The hood must be installed by a qualified technician with sufficient personnel to assist with lifting and anchoring the hood.
