Electrical Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Save 
Installation Instructions for electrical inspector’s use.
It is the customer’s responsibility to contact a qualified electrical 
installer, and to ensure that the electrical installation is adequate 
and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 
(latest edition), or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical 
Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition) and all local 
codes and ordinances.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is 
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the 
ground path is adequate.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
A 120 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15-amp fused, electrical circuit is 
required.
Do not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure range 
hood is properly grounded.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
The range hood must be connected with copper wire only.
The range hood should be connected directly to the fused 
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or 
nonmetallic sheathed copper cable. It is recommended that a 
separate circuit serving only this hood be provided.
Wire sizes (copper wire only) and connections must conform 
with the rating of the appliance as specified on the model/
serial rating plate. The model/serial plate is located behind 
the filter on the rear wall of the hood.
Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National 
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition), or CSA 
Standards C22. 1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and 
C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition) and all local codes and 
ordinances.
¹⁄₂" (12.7 mm) UL listed or CSA approved strain relief must 
be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the 
range hood and at the junction box).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
It is recommended that the vent system be installed before 
hood is installed.
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a 
joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be 
constructed.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance 
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum 
before you select your hood.
1. If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in 
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to rear 
wall. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over 
countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage or dirt. 
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall, or non-
vented.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Cover 
that surface with a protective covering..
4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto protective 
covering.
5. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the 
canopy hood will be installed.
6. Select a mounting height between a minimum of
30" (76.2 cm), and a suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm) 
above the cooking surface and mark a reference line on the 
wall.
