UNDER THE CABINET INSTALLATION
Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE
VENT OPENING.
•
Decide the location of the venting pipe
from the hood to the outside. Refer to
Figure 1.
•
A straight, short vent run will allow the
hood to perform more efficiently.
•
Try to avoid as many transitions,
elbows, and long run as possible. This
may reduce the performance of the
hood.
•
Temporarily wire the hood to test for
proper operation before installing.
•
Important: Peel protective film off the
hood, if any.
•
Use duct tape to seal joints between
pipe sections.
•
For installing under the cabinet with
recessed bottom, attach 4-inch wide
wood filler strips (not provided) on each
side. Refer to Figure 2.
•
Using references in TABLE 1 and
Measurements and Diagrams on page
18, create access opening for electrical
wires and hood exhaust under the
cabinet.
