How to measure your chimney: Make note above stove top where the base of the hood
will be after installed (30-36in above stove). From this point, measure to the point
where the Chimney Mountain Bracket rests (this bracket ends 2.5in from the ceiling,
the chimney will terminate here, not flush with the ceiling). If you measure to the
ceiling, subtract 2.5 inches for correct chimney height. Once you have the total height,
subtract the height of the base of the hood to where the chimney begins and you will
have the correct height of the chimney. Cut the chimney to fit.
*Make sure to include 2.5 inches of space above the chimney to the ceiling (the crown
molding will cover this).
