soffit framing
CONSTRUCT SOFFIT FRAMING
NOTE: A MINIMUM SOFFIT OPENING OF 10" IS REQUIRED TO
ACCOMMODATE THE DUCTWORK. SEE ILLUSTRATION BELOW.
1. Use 2x4's to construct the support framing. The considerable weight
of the blower and hood make this necessary.
2. Mark the center line of the installation. Nail two 2x4's (wide side down)
so that their inner edges are 9-3/4" from the center line.
3. 36" AND WIDER HOODS: Nail a second set of 2x4's (wide side down)
so that their outer edges are the hood-width apart.
4. Make two wood spacers: 2" x 10-1/2" x drywall thickness. Attach
them to framing as shown - flush with inner edges of framing and
with front edges 11-1/2" from finished back wall.
