Range Hood Mounting Screws Installation

1. Determine and mark the centerline on the ceiling where the

range hood will be installed, considering the requirements for

ceiling support structures. See the "Location Requirements"

section. Make sure the range hood is centered over the

cooking surface.

2. Tape template in place on the ceiling at the marked

centerline. The line for the front of the range hood should be

parallel to the front of the cooktop.

3. Use a pencil to mark the mounting screws, wire access and

duct hole locations on the ceiling.

NOTE: Mounting hole locations should be into a ceiling

support structure capable of holding 80 lbs (36.6 kg).

Remove the template.

4. Drill 4 - ³⁄₁₆" (4.8 mm) pilot holes for mounting the upper

horizontal support.

Complete Preparation

1. Determine the required location for the home power supply

cable and drill a ½" (1.3 cm) diameter hole for wire access.

2. Run ½" (1.3 cm) conduit and wires or home power supply

cable according to the National Electrical Code or CSA

Standards and local codes and ordinances. There must be

enough ½" conduit and wires or home power supply cable

from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the

connection in the hood's electrical terminal box.
