INSTALLING THE CHIMNEY HOOD
CLEARANCE HEIGHTS
The chimney hood is designed to be fitted
over a cooking appliance. A minimum
clearance height of 650mm (25˚ins) is
required when installed above a built-in
electric hob, or 700mm (27˚ins) when
installed above a built-in gas hob.
When installed between adjoining wall
cabinets, the wall cabinets must not overhang
the hob and the distance between the
underside of the cabinet and the worktop
must be 450mmm (17˚ins), a gap of 50mm
(2”) must be maintained either side of the hob.
This chimney hood must not be
installed above a cooking
appliance with a high level grill.
FITTING THE WALL
BRACKETS
1. Draw a vertical line on the wall from
the centre of the cooking appliance up
to the ceiling, using a spirit level and
marking pen. This is to ensure the
correct vertical alignment of the
appliance.
2. Draw a horizontal line through the
vertical at 270mm. Mark the centre
positions for the lower bracket fixing
screws (1) at 110mm either side of the
vertical line. Ensure that the distance
between the lowest point of the hood
and the cooking appliance beneath
meet the clearance requirements
quoted above.
3. Draw a horizontal line through the
vertical at 45mm from the ceiling or
from the maximum height of the
chimney. Mark the centre positions for
the upper bracket fixing screws (2)
at 80mm either side of the vertical line.
4. Draw a horizontal line through the vertical
at X. X is the distance between the centre
of the top and bottom fixing holes on the
upper chimney stack. Mark the centre
positions for the middle bracket fixing
screws (3) at 95mm either side of the
vertical line.
5. Drill the holes for the fixing screws using
an 8mm masonry drill and fix the wall
brackets using the plastic Rawl plugs
and 44mm screws provided. Ensure the
lower bracket (1) is fitted with the lugs
at the bottom.
