PREPARINGTHEINSTALLATION

Forindooruseonly.

 Forhouseholduseonly.Thishoodisnottobeusedtoexhaustexplosiveordangerous
fumesormaterials .

Forsafetyandforoptimumperformance,theventhoodmustbeinstalledataminimumof28”
aboveanelectriccookingsurfaceandaminimumof30”aboveagascookingsurface(ifthe
instructionsforinstallationofthegashobspecifyagreaterdistance,thishastobetakeninto
account).

Theexhaustairmustnotbedischargedintoachimneywhichisusedforexhaustingfumesfrom
otherappliancesthatburngasorotherfuels.

 Determinetheexactlocationoftheventhood.Markthe
location.Findthecenterlineofthecooktop.Usealevel
todrawaverticalstraightpencillineonthewall.

Plantherouteforventingexhausttotheoutdoors.Usethe
shortestandstraightestductroutepossible.Makesurethe
firstductrunsisatleast12’’beforeredirecting.Longduct
runs,elbowsandtransitionswillreducetheperformanceof
thehood.Useasfewofthemaspossible.Largerducting
mayberequiredforlongerductruns.

 Installawallcapwithdamperorroofcapattheexterior
opening/wall.Jointhewallorroofcaptotheductwork. 

Connectroundmetalductworktocapandworkbacktowards
thehoodlocation.Use2"metalfoilducttapetosealthejoints.
INSTALLATIONDRAWINGS

Itisimportanttoinstallthehoodatthepropermountingheight.
Ahoodmountedtoolowcouldresultinheatdamageandfirehazard,
whileahoodmountedtoohighwillbehardtoreachandwillloseits
performanceefficiency.

Thehooddistanceaboveanelectriccookingsurfacemustbe
Nolessthan28”.Thehooddistanceaboveagascookingsurface
mustnotbelessthan30’’.

 Forceilingsof9’ormore,theminimumhooddistancemust
