Installation –
Mounting the Hood
1. Determine mounting location on ceiling and temporarily tape paper template (included with the hood) to
the ceiling. Cut out internal shaded area of template to allow the ducting and electrical to pass through.
If necessary, add wood blocking (min. 2” x 4”) to ceiling joists located behind the drywall to reinforce the
mounting location*. (FIG. A1) Secure (2) M6 x 1” wood screws to points A and B of the paper template (FIG.
G). Do not completely tighten screws, leave approx. 1/4” exposed.
2. Remove screws securing top and bottom support frames together. Adjust support frame to accomodate the
desired hood height and re-assemble the frame using the previously removed screws (2 screws for each
support frame arm). (FIG. A3)
3. Lift support frame assembly up to the ceiling making sure the word “front” on the top support frame faces the
front of the hood where the controls will be located. (FIG. B) The key holes on the top support frame should
cover the wood screws previously installed in the ceiling. Slide support frame towards narrow end of key
holes to lock the frame in place. Install the last (2) M6 x 1” wood screws with washers into the two remaining
corners of the top support frame to secure it to the ceiling. Tighten all screws.
4. ZRE ONLY: Remove aluminum mesh filters from hood. Place canopy over blower housing and secure it to
hood body using (4) 3/16 x 1/4 pan head machine screws through filter opening. (FIG. L)
5. Lift hood and align the (4) pre-installed mounting screws located on top of the unit body (FIG. A4) with the (4)
key holes on the Bottom of Support Frame. (FIG. C) Slide hood towards the narrow end of key holes to lock
into place. Hand tighten each of the (4) screws with a screwdriver to secure hood to Bottom Support Frame.
Further secure bottom support frame to unit body by one M4 x 12 safety screw. (FIG. F, pg 10)
*Hood is intended to be mounted to a finished ceiling.
CAUTION: At least two installers are
required due to the weight and size of the
hood.
