BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD

1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.

CAUTION:

Vent unit to outside of building only.

2. Two people are necessary for installation.

3. The hood is fitted with screws suitable for most surfaces. Consult a qualified installer. Check if they perfectly fit with your ceiling.

4. Do not use flex ducting.

5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize back flow of cold air and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side (outside wall) of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

6. Hood installation height above cooktop/range is the user’s preference. Lower installation heights will improve the efficiency of capturing cooking odors,grease, and smoke. These hoods have been approved for installation heights 30” and above the cooktop/ranges. Taller people may find a 30” installation height is inconvenient. DCS recommends an installation height between 30” and 36”.

7. For installation over DCS range and cooktop models RGS-364GL or CS-364GL, the IVS52 model venthood is recommended.

8. Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement.

The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD

TYPICAL INSTALLATION

A typical hood installation is shown below in Figure 1. When installed with the IVCK chimney accessory kit, the hood can be installed at a height of 30” to 36” in kitchens with ceiling heights ranging from 8-1/2 to 10 feet. Installatons outside this range will require custom framing. Consult a qulified installer for a custom framing solution.

DUCTING

Provide a 10” Round Duct. Ducting run cannot exceed 40 feet,including allowance for elbows/transitions.

ELECTRICAL

Install a 1/2” conduit from the service panel long enough to reach the hood once it is installed.

Power supply must be rated for 120V 60Hz, 15 amps (minimum).

INSTALLATION HEIGHT CALCULATIONS

See Figure 1.

a) Select a hood installation height C that is comfortable for the user.(30”to 36”

recommended, 30”minimum).

b) Calculate chimney cover height E using fomrula below.

Save this calculation for use later in the installation.

A = Kitchen Ceiling Height

B= Counter Height (36" standard)

C= Installation Height of Hood.

D= Canopy Height = 13”

E= Chimney cover height = A – B – C – D

NOTE: Chimney cover height can be adjusted

from 24-1/2" to 36" to meet your desired hood installation height.

FIG.1

BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD

CEILING PREPARATION

Installing supports above ceiling drywall.

NOTE:Take into consideration the hood depth; some models are much deeper than the cooktop.

NOTE:The following steps pertain to hood installation using chimney structure/duct cover kit

model IVCK. Other installations may require custom framing, etc. Consult a qualified installer.

1. Mark center lines of cooktop or range on ceiling above. Use centerlines marked on ceiling to position the mounting template. Location of front arrow on the template must point towards front of cooking surface. Mark mounting holes indicated on the template.

2. Remove and save template. Cut and remove ceiling drywall. Install suitable length 2" x 4" lumber between joists to provide chimney mounting points as shown in Fig. 2. Use template for dimensions and required clearance.

Make sure to affix the added lumber firmly and level. Consult a professional if you have difficulties or your installation is unique. Consult template and Fig. 2.

IMPORTANT:

The ceiling structure (joists and lumbers) must be capable of supporting the weight of the hood (approximately 110 lbs for 40” range hood and 143 lbs for 52” range hood) and any inadvertent user contact loads.

3. DUCT INSTALLATION For IVS-52: Install 10” exhaust duct and extend length E minus 4-5/8” (E – 4-5/8”) from ceiling.

See Fig.1. Do not use duct smaller than specified.

4. Install 1/2" electrical conduit in location marked on template and extend length E minus 3-1/8” (E – 3-1/8”) from ceiling (use formula in Fig .1).

5. Install drywall around duct and conduit; then refinish ceiling.

6. Ta pe template in place using centerlines marked in Step 1. Mark locations of mounting points. Remove template.
