PROLINE
RANGE HOODS
USER MANUAL | 9
Plan where the ductwork will be located. Install proper-sized duct work, and roof or wall
cap, depending on where you will be venting your hood. Recommended and most com-
mon installations are shown in the venting diagrams above. Adjust your measurements
to accomodate heights of ceilings, cabinets, or rangetops.
wall hood installation
step 1
Install anchors and screws
Markings you’ll need:
♦ center line of installation area
♦ location of studs
♦ horizontal line 28” - 36” above the
cook top (this is where the bottom of
the range hood will be)
Use one panel of the cardboard ship-
ping box to trace an outline of the
hood.
♦ Place the cardboard panel against the
range hood and trace an outline
♦ Find the center point of range hood
(directly between mounting holes) and
mark it on the cardboard panel
♦ Find the mounting points on the hood
and mark them on the panel
♦ Transfer the panel to the wall, lining
the bottom of panel to the horizontal
line
♦ Line up the center point of the panel
with center point on the wall
♦ Find mounting points on the card-
board and poke holes through it,
marking where you will mount the
hood to the wall.
♦ Predrill holes where your mounting
marks are, then insert wall anchors
and mounting screws

prepare ductwork
Ductwork should already be punched through celling (or the wall if ceiling is not
an option) and ready to hook up to the range hood before beginning installa-
tion. See venting requirements on page 7 of this user manual.
If you are not venting to the outside of your home, be sure to install your
charcoal filters before mounting the hood to the wall. See information on char-
coal filters on page 5 of this manual.
