Preparation and Setup Parts List Part Needed Tools/Hardware Qty Example Have these tools and hardware within reach before you start the installation.
Preparation and Setup • See the diagram below: Top/Rear Electrical Access Holes for wire hole locations inside the hood. • See Wiring Diagrams at the end of this document. Meeting Installation Requirements WARNING • Observe all governing codes and ordinances during planning and installation. Contact your local building department for details. Use only ductwork accepted by state, municipal, and local codes.
Preparation and Setup CAUTION To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, duct air outside the house or building. Do not vent air into wall spaces, ceilings, attics, crawlspaces, or garages. WARNING During duct installation, ensure the damper flaps on top of the hood can open freely. • Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems with ventilation systems that move air greater than the specified movement rate (CFM). Specified rates depend on locale.
Preparation and Setup To determine your maximum length: Start with the your duct run’s total max. length, then subtract all of the ductwork equivalent lengths. (See the chart.) Ductwork Equivalent Lengths Piece Subtract 8” 90° Elbow 7 feet 8” 45° Elbow 3 feet 10” 90° Elbow 5 feet 10” 45° Elbow 2 feet 3” x 10” to Round 90° Transition 25 feet 3¼” x 10” to 8”/10” Round Transition 4 feet Wall Cap w/Damper Roof Cap * *Equivalent lengths of roof and wall caps vary with model and configuration.

Installation Instructions Marking the Centerlines These measurements and marks are for centering and leveling the hood, marking the duct cutouts, and installing the holding brackets (which brackets temporarily support the hood as you mount it permanently). IMPORTANT Users of the dual-exhaust format will need to install the AHT10 Dual-to-Single Transition Kit. (See the section Using the Dual-to-Single Transition Kit #AHT10 on Page 12 for installation instructions.

WARNING • Only install the hood if the electrical service provided meets the hood’s specifications. • Observe all governing codes and ordinances during installation.
Installation Instructions Rotating the Blower(s) for Rear Exhaust, cont. 3. Unscrew the cable clamp(s), and remove the hardware that holds the blower and L-bracket (previous graphic). 4. Detach the blower and plate, and place them nearby. The images in this section were chosen to illustrate the intended information and may not exactly represent the hood being installed. Orientating the Blower/Vent L-Brackets 1. Unscrew, and remove the L-bracket that is in the default top-venting orientation.
Installation Instructions Rotating the Blower(s) for Rear Exhaust, cont. Orientating the Blower(s) The blower(s) must be correctly positioned. Ensure the blower I/O port is against the back of the hood. Compare it with this graphic: Blower tip extends here Assembling the Filters Filters are boxed separately and must be assembled during installation. All needed knobs and hardware are included with the filters. For correct orientation, ensure the top of the filter faces up.
Installation Instructions Using the Dual-to-Single Transition Kit #AHT10 Bending the Flange (18”-Tall Hoods) • Top vent: Models 3018, 3618, 4818 • Rear vent: Models: 3018, 3618, 4818 On dual-exhaust models, the two 8” duct exhausts can be transitioned into one 10” duct. Assemble the Dacor transition kit #AHT10 (sold separately) before you hang the hood. This transition kit fits over the top/rear ventilation exits.
Installation Instructions Hanging the Range Hood WARNING Hanging the range hood requires two people. Do not lift the hood unassisted. IMPORTANT Take care not to scratch/damage the hood. 1. Remove the plastic film from the hood. Rear-Vent Configuration 2. Drill screwholes in the flanges, being sure to pierce the hood top. 3. With sheet-metal screws, fasten the AHT10 unit to the hood. 4. With foil tape/duct tape, seal the AHT10 unit’s base.
Installation Instructions 5. (If needed) Mark the top of the hood if the configuration calls for the hood to be secured at the top. 6. Remove the hood from the wall. 7. Drill the pilot or anchor holes. (If using anchors, insert them into the anchor holes.) 8. Re-engage the hood to the holding brackets. 9. Adjust the hood into its final position, and fasten it in place: Hardwiring the Hood WARNING Hardwiring the Hood, cont.
Installation Instructions WARNING • • • Do not ground the circuit to a gas line. Do not ground the circuit to a hot water pipe. Insulated water lines must be jumped to assure continuity to the ground. (See below.)
