RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

CAUTION

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURE TO PERSONS, PLEASE

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWINGS:

1. Installation work and electric wiring (including switch location) must be done by the qualified person(s) in

accordance with local applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

2. The hood may have sharp edges. Be careful when handling to avoid cuts and abrasions during installation and

cleaning.

3. The hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 25” from the electric cooktop and 30” from gas cooktop.

4. Provide sufficient ventilation for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the chimney to prevent

backdrafting. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the

National Fire Protection Association, and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning

Engineer (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

5. Hood must always be vented to the outdoors.

6. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

7. This appliance is design to be operated by adults. Children were not allowed to temper with the controls or play

with this appliance.

8. To r e du ce th e r i sk of fi r e o r e le c tr i c sh o ck , d o n o t use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

9. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

10. Before servicing or cleaning the hood, switch power off at service panel and lock the service disconnecting

means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be

locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

1. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may

ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,

Peppercorn Beef Flambe).

3. Clean hood frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

4. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

INSTALLATION & USE

NOTE: remove protective film (if any) from the exterior surfaces of the hood carefully prior to final

installation.

.DESCRIPTION / CONNECTION

This range hood should be mounted directly to the support frame mounting, where the support frame

flue shall secure to the ceiling joist or framework.

l Ductwork can be installed vertically or horizontally.

l Duct runs should be as short as possible.

l Avoid the use of elbows.

l Use duct tape at all joints.

l Do not use duct smaller than the discharge on the hood.

LOCATION PREPARATION

The installation in this manual is intended for qualified installers, service technicians or persons with

similar qualified background. DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could result from

installing the unit due to lack of appropriate electrical and technical background.

All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated and grounded. Overly accumulated grease in

old duct work should be cleaned out or duct work should be replaced if necessary to avoid the

possibility of a grease fire. Check all joints on duct work to insure proper connection and all joints

should be properly taped.

Note 1 :On stainless steel hoods, carefully remove the plastic protective film from all exterior surfaces

of the hood and chimney prior to final installation.

Note 2 : At least two people will be required to mount the hood.

MOUNT HEIGHTS & CLEARANCE
Minimum mount height between range top to hood

bottom should be no less than 25”

Maximum mount height should be no higher than 30”

It is important to install the hood at the proper
mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result
in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods
mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose
its performance and efficiency.

If available, also refer range manufacturer’s height
clearance requirements and recommended hood
mounting height above range.

* Maximum ceiling clearance 106.5” at 27.5” hood
mounting height from stove (different models may
varies)

** For higher ceiling, extension of the chimney and
the decorative cover is available to purchase, if
require.

Ducting (not provided)

NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages.

All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.

Use Metal ductwork only.

Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints w/ certified Silver Tape or Duct Tape.

Duct Run Calculation:

Maximum run 6” or 3-1/4 x 10” duct 100FT

Deduct:

each 90 Elbow used 15FT

each 45 Elbow used 9FT

each 6” to 3/14 x 10” 1FT

transition used

each 3/14 x 10” to 6” 5FT

transition used

Side Wall Cap w/ damper 30FT

Roof Cap 30FT

e.g. – 1 roof cap, 2x90 elbows, 1x45 elbow

= 30’ + 30’ + 9’=69’ used,

DUCT SIZE
A minimum of 6” round duct must be used to
maintain maximum airflow efficiency.

Flexible ducts are provided for convenience, always
use rigid type metal ducts if available to maximizing
airflow.

Also use calculation (on left) to compute total
available duct run when using elbows, transitions
and caps.

ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or
transitions and turns. If required a long duct
increase duct size from 6” to 7 or 8”.

If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of
pancake reducer. Reduce duct size as far away
from opening as possible.

If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away
from opening and as far apart, between 2, as
possible.

31’ available for straight duct runs
