Mount Hood onto Soffit or Cabinet
Note: If mounting to the underside of a cabinet
with a recessed bottom, install shims to fill the
gap
• Drive mounting screws into the studs until they
protrude by 1/4". The 1/4" gap will provide
clearance to engage the keyhole slots in the top
of the hood.
• Lift hood to installation position.
• Lift hood onto mounting screws. Slide back
against the rear wall.
• Tighten mounting screws.
IMPORTANT: For additional support and to minimize vibration during operation, the hood must be
secured to the back wall. Use wall anchors to fasten bottom back of hood to the wall.
CONNECT DUCTWORK
• Install ductwork, making connections in direction of airflow as illustrated
• Wrap all duct joints with duct tape for an airtight seal.
• Use duct tape to seal the flange connection. Reach inside the hood and push the damper up to be
sure it moves freely.
