Installation Clearances

For Mobile Home Installations

The installation of this range hood must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 328 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD, Part 280) or when such standard is not applicable, the standard for Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Setups) ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A, or latest edition, or with local codes.

A. 18” (45.7 cm) min. clearance - upper cabinet to countertop B. 24” (61 cm) min. for electric cooking surfaces

27” (68.6 cm) min. for gas cooking surfaces 30” (76.2 cm) suggested max. - bottom of range hood

Venting Requirements

(Vented Models Only)

■ Vent system must terminate to the outdoors,

except for non-vented (recirculating) installations.

■ Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or

other enclosed area.

■ Do not use a 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.

■ Use a 6" (15.2 cm) or larger round metal vent or a

31/4" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular metal vent. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.

■ The length of vent system and number of elbows should

be kept to a minimum to provide efﬁcient performance.

For the most efﬁcient and quiet operation:

■ Use no more than three 90° elbows.

■ Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight

vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.

■ Do not install 2 elbows together.

■ Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.

■ The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has

a damper, do not use damper supplied with the range hood.

■ Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening

around the cap.

Cold Weather Installations

An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air ﬂow and a thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

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

Makeup Air

Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using 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.

Venting Methods

A. 6" (15.2 cm) or larger round

vent or a 31/4" x 10" (8.3 x

or larger round damper (purchased separately)

C. Round vent: use 31/4" x 10"

Calculating Vent System Length

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

6” (15.2 cm) or Larger Round Vent System

Vent Piece Round

45° elbow 2.5 ft (0.8 m)

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use 31/4" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) with a maximum vent length of 35 ft (10.7 m) or 6" (15.2 cm) or larger round vent with a maximum length of 50 ft (15.2 m) for vent system.

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

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: The range hood must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition) or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 No. 0-M91 (latest edition).

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualiﬁed electrical installer determine that the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

■ A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused

electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this range hood be provided.

■ This range hood is equipped with a power supply

cord having a 3 prong grounding plug.

■ To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be

plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet, grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the properly grounded outlet installed by a qualiﬁed electrician.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Location

NOTE: For vented installations, it is recommended that the vent system be installed before hood is installed.

Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.

1. For vented installations, determine which venting

method to use: roof or wall.

2. Select a ﬂat surface for assembling the range hood.

Place covering over that surface.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

■

For a grounded, cord-connected range hood:

This range hood must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This range hood is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Improper grounding can result in a risk of

electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions

are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the range hood is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the range hood.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Determine Wiring Hole Location

Cut only one 11/4" (3.2 cm) diameter wiring access hole. See Step 2 for wiring hole location instructions.

1. Determine and clearly mark a vertical centerline on the

wall and cabinet in the area the vent opening will be made.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install range hood.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

3. Using 2 or more people, lift the range hood and set

it upside down onto covered surface.

4. If cabinet has recessed bottom, add wood ﬁller strips

on each side. Install screws to attach ﬁller strips in locations shown.

connectors to the range hood using sheet metal screws.

2. Remove mounting screws and lateral supports.

A. Lateral supports B. Mounting screws

3. For vented installations:

■ Depending on your installation, remove either top

or rear rectangular vent knockout. If using round vent, remove top rectangular knockout.

NOTE: Do not remove rectangular knockouts if installation of range hood is to be non-venting (recirculating).

■ Make sure damper pivot is nearest to top/back

edge of range hood.

■ Remove tape from damper ﬂap.

NOTE: The exhaust adaptor/damper can be installed up to 1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the hood center to accommodate off-center ductwork.

A. Vertical vent B. Sheet metal screws C. Hinge pin D. Vent knockouts E. Horizontal vent

■ If using round vent, attach vent transition piece

(purchased separately) to range hood top using sheet metal screws.

NOTE: If the wall cap is directly behind the vent connector, the dampers in the connector and wall cap must not interfere with each other. Remove the vent connector damper if they interfere.

4. Lift the range hood up under cabinet and determine

ﬁnal location by centering beneath cabinet. Mark on the underside of cabinet the location of the 4 keyhole mounting slots on the range hood. Set range hood aside on a covered surface.
