BlueStar offers two main series of professional ventilation hoods for the home:
A description of the Pro Line Hood, characterized by its modern, rectangular design and stepped top. It is designed for efficient ventilation and integrates seamlessly into a professional kitchen environment.
A description of the Pyramid Style Hood, featuring a distinctive pyramid or stepped shape that tapers from a wide base to a narrower top. This design offers both aesthetic appeal and effective ventilation.
IMPORTANT: ANY DAMAGE MUST BE REPORTED BEFORE INSTALLING THE HOOD. ONCE THE HOOD HAS BEEN INSTALLED, NO RETURN WILL BE ACCEPTED!
Make sure blowers are free from obstructions (packing and debris). Test run blowers before finalizing installation. Check with the manufacturer before attempting to use other than BlueStar blower systems. For technical information, contact BlueStar Service at (610.376.7479).
Inlet Location for Electrical Connection: Located near the rear center of the hood, 2.5" from the hood bottom.
Electrical Requirements: 15 Amps at 120 Volts.
Light Bulbs: PAR 16, 60 Watt Halogen.
Bulb Operation: Operated by a dimmer switch.
Blower: Variable speed and must be purchased separately.
When selecting the proper height to mount the hood, consider the stature of the person(s) who will be cooking. A height of 30" minimum to 36" maximum off the cooking surface will suit most users.
If mounted higher than 36" above the cooking surface, the hood should be at least 6" wider than the cooking appliance for proper capture of heat and grease (refer to range manufacturer's guidelines).
Once the proper height is established, draw a level line where the bottom of the hood will rest. If practical, mount a board equal to the hood's width along this line to support the hood during installation.
Mark a center line on the wall equal to the hood's entire height to assist with proper duct alignment and hood placement. Determine stud locations and mark them clearly. Due to the hood's weight, ensure mounting screws are driven into studs, not just drywall. Additional holes may be necessary in the canopy for proper alignment. If only one stud can be located, use toggle bolts or additional fastening to secure the hood.
Install a 115 Volt, 15 Amp electrical lead in the hole marked on the rough-in diagram (Figure A). Example: For a 36" hood, the location is 2.5" from the bottom, centered on the hood. Verify ducting is in the correct location for your application.
The bottom of the hood should be 30" minimum to 36" maximum above the countertop. This typically results in the bottom of the hood being 66" to 72" above the floor. The hood bottom should never be more than 72" above the floor or more than 36" above the countertop. These dimensions ensure safe and efficient operation.
If the hood is mounted greater than 72" from the floor for any reason, it must be 6" wider than the range.
All PL model hoods can duct from the top or rear. Check manual for recommended transitions.
