TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR iNJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:
A. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact
the manufacturer.
B. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch
power off at service panel and lock service
panel 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.
C. installation Work and Electrical Wiring Must Be
Done By Qualified Person(s) In Accordance
With All Applicable Codes & Standards,
including Fire-rated Construction.
D. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases through the flue

• COLD WEATHER installations should have an
additional backdraft damper installed to
minimize backward cold air flow 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 of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to
where the ducting enters the heated portion of
the house.
• 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 location to location
Consult your HVAC professional for specific
requirements in your area.
Typical installation
The height from the countertop to the bottom of the hood is 30" to 36".
These hoods are not recommended to be used over indoor grills.
1. Choose vent options
The hood is designed to be used for vertical discharge as shown below.
Note: see also Fig. 1-2-3 for Cabinet preparation.
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 120 VAC, 60Hz. 15 or 20A.

DUCT FITTINGS
Use this chart to compute maximum
permissable lengths for duct runs to
outdoors.
Note: Do not exceed maximum permissable
equivalent lengths!
Maximum recommended duct
length for these hoods: 150 feet
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.
*Hoods are supplied with a 10"
round transition. A locally
supplied transition is required
for other sizes.
Note: Outlet on top of hood is
8-1/8" x 8".

TotalDuct Run
For safety reasons, ducting should vent directly outdoors (not into an attic, underneath the house, into the
garage or into any enclosed space).
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible.
Duct fittings (elbows and transitions) reduce air flow efficiency.
Back to back elbows and "S" turns give very poor delivery and are not recommended.
A short straight length of duct at the inlet of the remote blower gives the best delivery.
Transition to duct from the integral blower to remote duct transition as close as possible.
In order opreference, use:
1st. 10" round duct
2nd. 8" round duct
3rd. 3-1/4" x 14" duct
4th. 7" round duct
5th. 3-1/4" x 10"duct
6th. 6" round duct
The use of flexible metal round duct should only be used when no other duct fitting exists. Limit use to short
lengths and do not crush when making corners.
1. Prepare duct and conduit cut outs, see figures
1 and 2 as needed.

3. After the hood installation height has been
determined draw a horizontal line at a distance
above the cooktop equal to the desired hood
installation height plus 7- 1/2". See also Figure 4a.
4. Find the centerline of the cooktop. Draw a
vertical line along this centerline up to the hori-
zontal line drawn in step 1 and draw a vertical
line right and left at a distance of12-5/8" to
determine the mounting location of the
mounting hooks shipped with the hood.
5. Fit two mounting hooks on the wall to hang the
hood through the provided slots (2 wall
anchors + 2 hooks + 2 screws 5x35).
6. Run 10" Duct, long enough to reach the
transition once the hood has been installed plus
1 1/2" inch to connect ductwork. Fix Duct to
transition with screws and seal withtape.
7. Remove 1of 2 knockouts and install 1/2"
conduit connector in j-box.
8. Hang the hood and adjust its position through
the screws on the hooks.
9. Fix the hood to 4 additional point, 2 on
upperside, 2 on lower side (use 4 wall anchors
+ 4washers + 4 screws 5x35).

locations.
5. Fit 4 screws on cabinet bottom do not tighten

8. Hang the hood on screws through side slots provided
on hood top. Tighten the four screws. Note: If possible
fix the hood on the wall at 4 additional point (2 on
upper side, 2 on Iowerside).
9. From the inside of the cabinet attach the transition
on upper outlet.
