Dacor DH3606S Installation Instruction

Hanging the Range Hood

Hanging the range hood requires two people. Do not 

attempt to lift the hood without assistance.

1.  Remove the filters from the bottom of the hood to 

reduce the chance of damage during installation. Put 

them in a safe location.

2.  Remove the plastic coating from the outside of the 

hood.

3.  Lift the hood into its final position and hold it in place. 

4.  While holding it in place, mark the desired locations for 

the anchors or wood screws through the mounting slots 

on the back and top of the hood.

5.  Remove the hood from the wall.
6.  Drill the pilot or mounting anchor holes. If using mount-

ing anchors insert them into the mounting holes.

7.  Lift the hood again into its final position and fasten it in 

place. Insert the fasteners through the mounting slots 

in the back and top of the hood into the studs, mount-

ing blocks or anchors.

Installation Instructions

Ductwork Installation

During duct installation, make sure there are no 

obstructions that keep the damper flaps on the top of the 

hood from opening.

•  Install the ductwork starting from the hood, working 

toward the outside vent. Observe the specifications on 

page 5.

•  Fasten all joints with sheet metal screws and seal with 

duct tape or certified silver tape.

Final Electrical Installation

•  To avoid electric shock or fire hazard, prior to connect-

ing the electrical wiring to the hood, make sure that 

power to the hood power supply line is turned off at 

the fuse box or circuit breaker panel.

•  Improper connection of the hood electrical wiring may 

create an electric shock or fire hazard and may result 

in damage to the hood’s electrical system. See page 

4 for specifications.

•  Do not ground the hood to the neutral (white) power 

supply wire. Connect the hood ground wire to a sepa-

rate, properly grounded wire installed by a licensed 

electrician.

•  Make sure all wire used is capable of handling the 

total connected load. See page 3.

1.  Turn off power to the electrical circuit that will supply 

the hood at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

2.  Feed the end of the hood wiring harness through the 

wiring access hole as shown.
