Mark the locations of the keyhole shaped
hanging bracket holes onto the wall as
shown in Figure 3A and Figure 3B.
Mark the mounting locations for the upper
chimney mounting bracket:
Inspect how this bracket installs into the
upper chimney cover, use that as reference
to where you want your upper chimney
installed and where the bracket should be
installed onto your wall.
Place the mounting bracket squarely
above the range hood, level it and mark
the locations of the mounting bracket
holes on the wall.
Predrill holes for mounting hardware:
Safely place aside all equipment and
review all marked regions and drill holes.
Review fastening hardware to be used.

•
Sheet rock, drywall or wood walls
where
the structural studs or solid structural
support
are accessible:
screw directly
into
the structural studs or structural
support,
with hardware that meets are
exceeds the
factory hardware, with at
least 1” of thread
engagement.

Sheet rock, drywall or wood walls
where
the structural studs or solid structural
support are
not accessible:
Affixing the
range hood to into structural studs is
highly
recommended. If stud blockings are
not
available, it is recommended to build a
support structure behind the sheet rock for
the best weight support. If wall anchors
are
used, ensure their hanging capacity
exceeds the weight of the range hood,
hardware, and estimated usage load.
•
Concrete wall:
Use designated concrete
screws and/or anchors (not provided) that
meet or exceed the factory hardware
specifications. Ensure proper load ratings.
Follow instructions of concrete screw
