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 venting 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.
Temporary wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing.
Important: Peel any protective film off the hood.
Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe
sections.
Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with six
(3/16” x 1/2”) screws (included). Refer to Figure
2.
