Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary.
If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the
materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Recommended installation height:
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference.
The lower the hood is above the cooktop, the more efficient
the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
I
CAUTION
Mount this hood so that the bottom edge above the cooking
surface is at 30” (76.2 cm) minimum if a gas range is used, or
at 24” (61 cm) if an electric range is used.
There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recommend
mounting the hood no greater than 36” above the cooking
surface. For every inch (2.54) cm above 36”, fume and moisture
capture efficiency diminishes at an increasing rate and may
not deliver an acceptable level of ventilating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
Please read the installation manual for specific application.
Check your ceiling height and hood height before selecting your
hood.
