ADVANCE PLANNING
Ductwork Planning
■Theseventhoodsareequippedfor8”round
ductwork.
■Determinetheexactlocationoftheventhood.
■Plantherouteforventingexhausttotheoutdoors.
■Usetheshortestandstraightestductroutepossible.
Forsatisfactoryperformance,ductrunshould
notexceed100ft.equivalentlengthforanyduct
configurations.
■Referto“DuctFittings”charttocomputethe
maximumpermissiblelengthforductrunstothe
outdoors.
■Userigidmetalductworkonly.
■Installaroofcapwithdamperattheexterior
opening. Order the cap and any transitions needed
in advance.
■Whenapplicable,installanymakeup(replacement)
air system in accordance with local building code
requirements.VisitGEAppliances.comforavailable
makeup air solutions.
Ductwork Planning
■Theseventhoodsareheavy.Adequatestructural
support must be provided. The ceiling structure
must be capable of supporting the weight of the
hood and any inadvertent user contact loads
(approximately200pounds).Thehoodsupport
framewillbesupportedby2x4crossframing.
■Installationwillbeeasieriftheventhoodisinstalled
before the cooktop or countertop below is installed.
Accessory Duct Cover
■Allmodelsareshippedwithaductcoverforceiling
heightsof7’-11”to9’.
POWER SUPPLY
IMPORTANT - (Please read carefully)
WARNING FORPERSONALSAFETY,THIS
APPLIANCEMUSTBEPROPERLYGROUNDED.
Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before
beginning installation.
Donotuseanextensioncordoradapterplugwith
thisappliance.FollowNationalelectricalcodesor
prevailing local codes and ordinances.
Electrical supply
Theseventhoodsmustbesuppliedwith120V,60Hz,
andconnectedtoanindividual,properlygrounded
branchcircuit,andprotectedbya15or20ampcircuit
breaker or time delay fuse.
■Wiringmustbe2wirewithground.
■Iftheelectricalsupplydoesnotmeettheabove
requirements,callalicensedelectricianbefore
proceeding.
■Routehousewiringintheceiling,asclosetothe
installationlocationaspossible.Allowadditional
lengthfromceilingjoiststoreachthejunctionbox
on the bottom of the hood support frame.
■Connectthewiringtothehousewiringin
accordance with local codes.
Grounding instructions
The grounding conductor must be connected to
agroundmetal,permanentwiringsystem,oran
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the hood.
WARNING The improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service representative if you are in doubt whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
ZX92510accessory36-3/4" duct cover is available
toreach9'-1" to10'-1" ceiling heights. The

DUCT FITTINGS
This Hood Must Use an 8” Round
Duct. It Can Transition to a
3-1/4” x 12” Duct.
Usethischarttocomputemaximumpermissiblelengths
for duct runs to outdoors.
NOTE:Donotexceedmaximumpermissibleequivalent
lengths!
Maximum duct length: 100 foot for range hoods.
Flexible ducting
Ifflexiblemetalductingisused,alltheequivalentfeet
valuesinthetableshouldbedoubled.Theflexiblemetal
ductshouldbestraightandsmoothandextendedas
much as possible.
DO NOTuseflexibleplasticducting.
NOTE: Anyhomeventilationsystem,suchasa
ventilationhood,mayinterrupttheproperflowof
combustionairandexhaustrequiredbyfireplaces,gas
furnaces,gaswaterheatersandothernaturallyvented
systems. To minimize the chance of interruption of such
naturallyventedsystems,followtheheatingequipment
manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards such
asthosepublishedbyNFPAandASHRAE.When

CONSTRUCT CEILING SUPPORT
Plan the Location of the Hood and Ductwork
■  Use a plumb bob to check the location. The
countertop/cooktop below the hood must be
centered with the hood.
■  Thehoodshouldextendbeyondthefront

■  The duct in the ceiling must be centered
over the cooktop.
Ceiling Support Structure
■Atthehoodlocation,install2x4crossframing
betweenceilingjoistsasshown.(2x4’sarerequiredto
