Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Have a qualified technician install the range hood. It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation clearances specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The model/serial/ rating plate is located behind the left filter on the rear wall

of the vent hood.

Canopy hood location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors, and strong heating vents.

Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions provide minimum clearance.

This range hood is recommended for use with cooktops with a maximum total rating of 60,000 BTUs or less.

Grounded electrical outlet is required. See “Electrical Requirements” section.

The canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall. For non-vented (recirculating) installation, see “For nonvented (recirculating) installation only” in the “Connect Vent System” section. Recirculation Kit Part Number W10349327 is available from your dealer or an authorized parts distributor.

All openings in ceiling and wall where canopy hood will be installed must be sealed.

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.

NOTE: The range hood chimneys are adjustable and designed to meet varying ceiling or soffit heights, depending on the distance “X” between the bottom of the range hood and the cooking surface. For higher ceilings, a Stainless Steel Chimney Extension Kit Part Number EXTKIT18FS is available from your dealer or an authorized parts distributor. The chimney extension replaces the upper chimney shipped with the 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 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.

■■ Use metal vent only. 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 the roof or wall cap has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range hood.

■■ Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.

■■ The size of the vent should be uniform.

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

This canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.

A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation

(not included). The hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.

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

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.

Rear Discharge

A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.

5

For Non-Vented (Recirculating) Installations

If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, fitting a charcoal filter and the deflector. Fumes and vapors are recycled through the top grille. See the “Assistance or Service” section for information on ordering.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Location

■■ 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.

■■ Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.

1.Disconnect power.

2.Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall, or non-vented.

3.Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place covering over that surface.

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.

4.Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto covered surface.

5.Remove wood base from range hood and dispose of properly.

Range Hood Mounting Screws Installation

1.Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the canopy hood will be installed.

2.Select a mounting height between a minimum of 24" (61 cm) for an electric cooking surface, a minimum of 27" (68.6 cm) for a gas cooking surface, and a suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm) above the range to the bottom of the hood. Mark a reference line on the wall.

3.Tape template in place, aligning the template centerline and bottom of template with hood bottom line and with the centerline marked on the wall.

5.For wood, drill 3/16" (4.8 mm) pilot holes at all locations where screws are being installed into wood.

For wall anchors, drill 7/16" (10 mm) holes at all locations where wall anchors are being used.

6.For wood, install (2) 5 x 45 mm mounting screws. Leave a 1/4" (6.4 mm) gap between the wall and the back of the screw head to slide range hood into place.

For wall anchors, install the 10 x 60 mm wall anchors and install the 5.4 x 75 mm screws into the wall anchors.

Tighten until the wall anchors are secure. Back the screws out 1/4" (6.4 mm).
