4.1 Planning the Installation

Before installation, determine whether you will use ducted or ductless (recirculating) ventilation. Ensure you have the necessary tools and materials, and that the installation area meets local building codes.

• Mounting Height: The recommended mounting height above the cooking surface is 25.6 to 29.5 inches. Refer to local codes for specific requirements.
• Electrical Requirements: Ensure a dedicated grounded electrical outlet is available within the range hood's reach, matching the specified voltage.
• Ducting (for ducted installation): Use rigid metal ductwork of appropriate size (typically 6-inch round or equivalent). Minimize duct length and number of elbows for optimal performance.
• Ductless (Recirculating) Installation: Requires charcoal filters (sold separately, if not included) to remove odors before returning air to the kitchen.

4.2 Mounting the Range Hood

1. Mark the mounting points on the wall according to the installation template (if provided) or the hood's dimensions.
2. Drill pilot holes for mounting screws.
3. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall.
4. Carefully lift the range hood and hang it onto the mounting bracket.
5. Secure the hood to the wall using additional screws as needed.

4.3 Electrical Connection

Connect the range hood to a grounded electrical outlet. If direct wiring is required, consult a qualified electrician.

4.4 Ducting Connection (Ducted Installation)

1. Attach the ductwork to the exhaust outlet of the range hood.
2. Seal all duct connections with aluminum foil tape to prevent air leaks.
3. Route the ductwork to the exterior of the building, ensuring a clear path for exhaust.

If using the ductless option, install charcoal filters (if not pre-installed) according to their specific instructions. These filters are essential for odor removal.
