Installation Preparation

ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning

Ŷ This hood is designed to be vented vertically

through the ceiling. Use an 8" round duct. Use
locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally
through the rear wall.

Ŷ Use metal ductwork only.

Ŷ Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

Ŷ Plan the route for venting exhaust to the

outdoors. To maximize the ventilation
performance of the vent system:

1. Minimize the duct run length and number of
transitions and elbows.

2. Maintain a constant duct size.

3. Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any leaks.

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible
vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that

INSTALLATION PREPARATION

greatly reduces performance.

Ŷ Maximum equivalent duct length for 100 CFM:

150 foot for vent hoods.

Ŷ Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the

exterior opening. Purchase the wall or roof cap
and any transition and length of duct needed in
advance.

Ŷ When applicable, install any makeup (replacement)

air system in accordance with local building code
requirements. Use makeup air kit JXMUA8.

Vent system can terminate either through the roof

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.

Ŷ Wiring must be 2 wire with ground.
Ŷ If the electrical supply does not meet the above

requirements, call a licensed electrician before
proceeding.

Ŷ Route house wiring as close to the installation

location as possible in the ceiling or wall.

Ŷ 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

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.

Recirculation Install Planning

A recirculation duct (included) and charcoal
filter (included) are necessary for recirculation
installation.

Installation

NEW CONSTRUCTION, PRE-PLANNING, OR REMODELING

NOTE: For existing construction, skip to the section, Installing The Hood Bracket Mount.

Ŷ Install horizontal wood supports between 2 wall

studs that align with the vertical mounting height
locations shown in the illustration.

Ŷ The horizontal supports must be flush with the room

side studs.

Ŷ For ducted installation, the hole for the duct in the

ceiling must be centered 5" away from the finished
rear wall.

From the lower left corner of
the gray shaded area, it is
recommended to have at least
20" of house electrical wiring.

5"

Ŷ The bottom support aligns with the hood mounting

bracket. This height depends on the desired height
of the hood.

Ŷ The top support must be flush with the ceiling.
Ŷ The electrical wiring can be located 5-1/2” to the left

or right (junction box is on the left) of the centerline.
Must remain 7/16” above the back panel and 5” from
the ceiling, refer to illustration on next page.
