Mark ceiling
♦ place 4 marks on the ceiling, directly above the 4
corners of your cooktop
♦ drawing on the ceiling, connect those 4 marks into
a rectangular shape
♦ this shape should be the same as the perimeter of
your cooktop, and located on the ceiling directly
above the cooktop
♦ find the center point. This is where you will mount
your ceiling bracket
Install ceiling bracket

your cooktop (using your lines from step 1)
♦ trace the outline of the ceiling bracket onto the
ceiling
♦ mark the 4 corners where you will drill holes
♦ if you are venting to the outside of your home:
cut out a hole in the ceiling and drop your rigid
ductwork and electrical wiring though the hole
♦ put chimney bracket against ceiling
♦ drill holes into ceiling where marked, securing the
ceiling bracket into place
*ceiling bracket must be mounted to a weight-bearing ceiling able to support at least twice the weight of the hood.*
