INSTALLATION
CONSIDERATIONS

1) A straight, short duct run will
allow the hood to perform more effi­ciently. Try to limit the number of
elbows and transitions to as few as
possible. Long duct runs, elbows and
transitions will reduce the perform­ance of the hood.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

All hoods must exhaust to the out­doors. There is a possibility of noise
issues, if there is a short duct run
coupled with a remote blower.

2) Always use metal ducting. Do not
use flex ducting.

3) Wolf recommends installing a
back-draft damper in all installations
(included with hood). In cold weather
installations a back-draft damper is
necessary to minimize the backflow
of cold air into the room.

4) Wolf recommends the hood be
installed 30”-36” above the cooking
surface.

5) Local building codes may require
the use of make-up air. Consult your
local HVAC professional for specific
requirements in your area.

HOOD PREPARATION

IMPORTANT NOTE:

If installing a duct cover, the duct
cover must be installed prior to hood
installation. See page #10 for duct
cover installation instructions or fol­low those packed with duct cover.

1) Remove hood filters from hood
shell.

2) Remove center filter bank by
removing the 2 screws from each
side. DO NOT DISCARD THESE
PARTS, as they will be reinstalled after
hood installation is complete.

3) The hood assembly is shipped with
the transition attached. The transition
is shipped upside down in the top of
the hood assembly and must be
removed and reinstalled.

4) Detach the transition from the
hood assembly by removing the (4)
screws on the top of the hood assem­bly. DO NOT DISCARD SCREWS.
Shipping screws are needed for the
reinstallation of the transition to
hood.

5) Invert transition so that the 10”
round points away from top of hood.
Use screws removed from step 4.

6) If installing a remote blower, drill
7/8” hole through framing for con­duit wiring. See Internal Blower on
page 8 for overall dimensions and
electrical requirements. See installa­tion instructions provided with the
blower for mounting and installation
information.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not run or
remove blower electrical connections
through duct work.

INSTALLATION

Install Ductwork

1) Decide where the ductwork will

run between the hood and the
outside of the home. Your Wolf island
hood has a top discharge which will
run vertically.

IMPORTANT NOTE: All hoods must
exhaust to the outdoors.

2) When not installing an external
ventilator, always install a roof or
island cap. Connect 10" round metal
ductwork to the cap and work back
towards the hood location.

3) Use duct tape to seal the joints
between the ductwork sections.

4) Your Wolf island hood comes stan­dard with a 10" round transition with
backdraft damper. It is recommended
that a backdraft damper be used in
all installations.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use duct
smaller than 10".

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, use
only metal ductwork.

INSTALL HOOD

1) Make sure there is at least a 10"
opening in the ceiling to accommo­date the duct work necessary for
proper ventilation.

2) Layout the overall dimensions of
the hood top plate on the finished
ceiling or unfinished surface. The top
plate width is 13", but overall length
will vary with the size of the hood.
Refer to the overall dimensions illus­tration on page 3.

3) Use 2 x 4’s to construct the fram­ing. The weight of the hood makes
proper structural support necessary.

4) Mark the center location of the
hood. Install (2) 2 x 4’s across the top
of the ceiling joists.

5) Drill 5/32" holes in 2 x 4’s to
match the pattern of the top of the
hood.

6) Make sure hood filters and hood
filter bank are removed prior to
installation of hood. See page 6 for
direction.

7) Lift the hood and align hood

mounting holes with pre-drilled ceil

ing holes. Slide ⁄" lag screws through

hood mounting holes and tighten

into 2x4 framing. DO NOT OVER

TIGHTEN SCREWS.

8) Connect the 10" round ductwork

to the hood transition using sheet

metal screws or duct tape.

9) Make electrical connections. See
Install Wiring on page 8.

10) Adjust hood to proper location
and tighten all 4 lag screws until
hood surface is flush with ceiling.
Install #10 x 2" screws through
remaining hood mounting holes
along top edge of hood surface for
additional support.

11) If installing internal blower DO
NOT REINSTALL hood filters and
hood center filter bank until blower
installation is complete. See Internal
blower installation on page 8.

1) Run 120 VAC, 15 AMP minimum
circuit electric power cable from the
service panel to the junction box at
the center of hood. Supply 20”
minimum of Romex wire.

2) Remove the knockout located on
the left side of the hood top plate.
See below illustrations for specific
location and dimensions of knockout.

3) Feed the conduit through the hole
on top of the hood to junction box
located in center of hood shell.

4) Remove the junction box cover
and connect black to power supply
black wire, white to power supply
white wire and green wire to green
or bare wire.

REMOTE BLOWER

IMPORTANT NOTE: Before turning

the power on, make sure the blower

is in the "OFF" position. Use wire con-

nectors or wire nuts approved by UL

or C/UL. Refer to installation instruc-

tions provided with each blower to

verify island or roof cut-outs.

STEP 1: Plan the Installation

1) Locate the blower so the length of

the duct run and number of elbows
and transitions are kept to a mini­mum.

2) Where possible, blower should be
located between island studs or roof
rafters.

3) Avoid pipes, wires or other duct­work that may be running through
the island.

4) Be sure that there is enough space
for any transitions that may be need­ed between the blower and the con­necting ductwork.

5) For best performance, locate tran­sitions nearest the blower.

STEP 2: Connect Remote Blower

NOTE: Always refer to all blower

installation instructions provided with
the blower for additional mounting
and wiring instructions.

1) Remove cover from wiring box
inside of hood shell. Remove wiring
box knockout.

2) Feed 20” of inbound (Romex)
power cable through the knockout
opening hole and into the wiring
box. Secure the cable to wiring box
with an appropriate connector for
type of cable being used. Connect

leads as follows:

• Black (L1) to black (loose) in the J
box from the switch.

•Neutral to neutral (loose) in the J
box from the switch.

3) Wiring Remote Blower: Follow
wiring instructions at the blower as
outlined in the particular blower
installation instructions. Black (L1) to
black, white (neutral) to white – or
white to blue, or white to brown
(depending on model) and green to
grounding screw. Run remote blower
cable (ROMEX) to the hood.

Feed 20”of (ROMEX) power cable
through the knockout opening hole
and into the wiring box on the
rough-in plate of hood. Secure the
cable to wiring box with an appropri­ate connector.

Locate cord assembly provided with
the remote blower. The cord assem­bly has two leads, black (L1) and
white (neutral). Connect these leads
to the leads from the blower, black to
black and white to white.

Connect ALL green and bare wires
together to the ground screw in the
wiring box.

4) Plug cord assembly into receptacle
located near the center of the hood
shell. Use clips on hood interior to
keep excess power cord away from
moving parts.

5) Re-install wiring box cover and
screws. Make sure all wires are secure
and that no wires are pinched
between cover and box.

INSTALL HOOD FILTER
AND DRIP CUPS

Hood Filters and Drip Cups Install

1) Reinstall hood filter center bank

with screws removed prior to installa­tion of hood assembly.

2) Remove all packaging material
from filters and drip cups.

3) Slide drip cups along bottom edge
of hood opening so lip overhangs
slightly.

4) Lift filters into place. Lines of fil­ters must run vertically and align with
drip cups.

5) Adjust filters to fill space by sliding
filters left to right.

Installing a duct cover assembly
will impact all aspects of hood
installation including hood loca­tion, ducting, electrical place­ment and adequacy of mounting
surfaces.

INSTALL LOGO

The nameplate is not pre-assembled

because there are various locations that

the logo can be installed. Additionally,

some customers prefer not to have a

nameplate on their hood. For your

convenience, Wolf has created a tem-

plate for a standardized logo location.

Please see the back page of these

installation instructions for Wolf logo

template.

1) Decide on the location for the
nameplate.

2) Clean mounting area with rubbing
alcohol.

3) If desired, cut-out template for
nameplate location.

4) Fold template, locate placement on
hood and tape to hood surface.

5) Check alignment and adjust if nec­essary.

6) Remove backing paper from name­plate.

7) Position nameplate in template
cutout and press into place.
