1
PLANNING THE DUCTWORK
Begin planning the ductwork by deciding where the duct will run
between the range hood and the outside. For best performance,
use the shortest possible duct run and a minimum number of elbows. There are several choices shown below.
NOTE: Shown are typical installations. For maximum efficiency,
use 3¾” x 10” rectangular duct. In more complex ducting situations, a ducted range hood can be converted to round duct by
means of a transition.
1.OUTSIDE WALL — If your range is located on an e xterior wall,
duct horizontally through the wall. This is the most economical
installation, and also offers top performance because the duct
run is so short that it offers practically no resistance. (Fig. A)
NOTE: If ducting directly off the bac k of the hood, special care
must be taken to make sure that the damper in the damper/
duct connector and the damper in the wall cap do not interfere
with each other when the hood is operating. This could result
in either inadequate air delivery or backdrafts. If this condition
exists, remove the hood damper flap. Sometimes, when using
a wall cap, it is easier to duct v ertically and then use an elbow .
2.THROUGH ATTIC — TO ROOF OR EAVE — This is usually
the most efficient and economical installation if the range is
located on an inside wall and there is attic space above. (Fig. B)
3.THROUGH SOFFIT — TO OUTSIDE WALL —
the best solution when the range is located on an inside wall in
a two story home. (Fig. C)
This is often
4.BETWEEN JOISTS — TO OUTSIDE WALL OR EAVE
5.WHEN “THERE’S NO WAY” — UNDER CEILING — TO OUT-
SIDE WALL — Suppose you can’t use (2) because you have
a two story home. You can’t use (3) because y ou hav e no soffit
or don’t want to take the old one out. The joists run the wrong
way for (4) or you don’t want to tear up your ceiling.
To duct to the outside, attach the duct under the ceiling and
cover it with a false wood beam or use other materials to camouflage the ductwork (Fig. F)
UNPACKING
Unpack the hood and check the contents. Along with the canopy,
you should have received:
•Plastic bag containing:
— Four No. 10AB x 1½ long sheet metal screws (for
mounting canopy to wall or soffit or for use with plastic
hollow wall anchors
— Four 5/16” washers
— Four plastic hollow wall anchors
— Two 1/4” black sheet metal screws (for attaching
damper/duct connector to canopy hood
•One aluminum filter
•Damper duct connector

PREPARING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION
NOTE
The range hood should be mounted so the bottom of the hood
is 18” to 24” above the cooking surface and the top front edge
of the hood should be flush with the front of the soffit.
7.Measure and mark the following (Figs. 6 & 7)
a. Electrical line opening.
b. duct opening in wall or soffit.
c. (For ventless installation only) Center hood in place
beneath soffit and flush with front of soffit. Trace
keyhole slots onto soffit.
8.Use a 1-1/4” drill bit to drill the opening for the electrical line. If
drilling in the wall, be carefull not ot cut existing cables. (Fig.
8).
NOTE:
Omit steps 9a through 9c for ventless installation.
9.Ducted installation only (Steps 9a - 9c
a. Measure and mark the duct opening in the soffit or
wall.
b. Drill four pilot holes in the corners of the marked
duct opening with a 1/2” wood bit, and with a saber
saw , cut out the opening in the wall or soffit. (Fig. 9).
c. Hold hood under the soffit and trace the keyhole
slots onto the soffit.

PREPARING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION (CONT.)
10. Screw four supplied 1½” long screws (for mounting the hood)
into the exact center of the narrow end of the traced keyhole
mounting slots marked on the soffit. Do not turn the mounting
screws in all the way — allow 3/8” of screws to project, so that
hood can be fitted into place. (The screws will be tightened
later.)
For wall mounting, use the 1½” long screws into wall studs or
additional wall framing.
If wall studs or additional wall framing are not
available, follow these steps:
1.Drill a 5/16” diameter hole in wall material.
2.Fold anchor , insert anchor into hole, and tap
anchor flush with wall.
3.Push key into anchor to toggle anchor open
behind wall.
Do not hammer key!
4.Hold component in place over anchor. In-
sert screw and tighten until screw is flush
with component. Do not overtighten!

INSTALLING THE DUCTWORK
NOTE
These instructions will follow the plans made on page 2. Start
at the exterior and run the ductwork back to the hood.
For best possible performance of your range hood, use the
shortest possible duct run and a minimum number of elbows.
Never vent a range hood into an attic space because a buildup of grease will become a fire hazard.
Use only metal ductwork (do not use plastic duct) Assemble
securely so that in case of fire on the range, the fire will be
contained inside the duct system.
Tape all duct connections to make them secure and airtight.
11. Follow the appropriate directions below for the type of ductwork
are installing.
a. To install a wall cap discharge (Fig. 11): Use a saber sa w or
keyhole saw to cut a hole slightly larger than duct size used
so that cap will line up easily with duct. Install casing strips
on the outside of a wood house if required. Run the required amount of ductwork back to the location of the hood
and trim the last section of ductwork so cap will be flush
with outside wall. Fasten wall cap to ductwork and nail or
screw cap to wall. Caulk all around flange with high quality
caulking compound.
Fig. 11
b. To install a roof cap: Cut a hole in roof slightly larger than
duct size being used. Run ductwork back to location of hood.
Leave approximately 3/4 ”for ductwork projecting above roof
surface on high side.
T rim ductwork parallel to roof pitch, and seal all around duct
with roof cement.
Carefully lift shingles and slide back of flange under shingles.
Nail flange to roof under shingles at top two corners and
two sides. Nail directly to roof in four places at bottom.
Using roof cement, seal all nail heads and shingles which
were cut or fitted. Do not scale bottom edge of flange. (Fig.

wirng the range hood.
12. Bring electrical cable through access hole drilled in the wall or
soffit. Split the cab le for 6” and install the proper connector for
the type of cable being used. Remove the lock nut from the
connector and let the prepared cable project through the soffit
or wall opening so it is ready for installation into the range hood.
(Fig. 12)
13. Position the hood in place so that:
a.The electrical line is routed through the appropriate knock-
out opening. This step will ha ve to be accomplished while
positioning the hood.
b.The damper/duct connector fits into the duct opening in
the soffit or wall.
14. Install loc k nut on the electrical connector and tighten securely .
15. Make the electrical connection using wire nuts to connect white
wire to white, black wire to black, and ground the hood to the
prepared hole using the green ground screw provided with the
hood. (Fig. 13)
16. Replace the wring box cover and screw. Make sure that all
wiring is contained safely inside.
17. Install 75 watt (R30) or 150 watt (R40) flood light. Ordinary
light bulb (100 watt max.) may also be used. Turn on power
and check operation of fan and light.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
TO REMOVE FAN ASSEMBLY
Be sure power is disconnected. Remove Filters. Remove the two
screws holding the motor bracket to the range hood and unplug the
fan assembly. Be careful not to allow fan assembly to drop when
the screws are removed. (Fig. 15).
HOW TO AVOID A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE
• Your range hood provides a protective barrier between the
cooking surface and the cabinets.
• Keep fan, filters and grease laden surfaces CLEAN according to instructions.
• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat to keep the
cooking area and the hood cooler.
• Use high heat settings only when necessary.
• Never leave cooking surface unattended. Boil-over causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
• Always use adequate-sized utensils.
• If preparing flaming foods, such as Cherries Jubilee, always
turn hood ON to HIGH to prevent a high heat situation which
can cause damage or fire.
HOW TO EXTINGUISH A COMMON RANGE-TOP
GREASE FIRE
• Never pick up a flaming pan. If dropped, flames can spread
quickly.
• DO NOT USE W ATER! A violent stream explosion may result.
Wet dishcloths or towels are also dangerous.
• Smother flames with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet or metal
tray.
• Flaming grease can also be extinguished with baking soda or
a multi-purpose dry chemical extinguisher.
• T urn off surf ace units - if you can do so without getting burned.
