Plan where the duct work will be located. Install proper-sized duct work, and roof or wall cap for the type of blower you are using. Recommended hood locations for the most common installations are shown. Adjust your measurements for various heights of ceilings, soffits, cabinets, or ranges/rangetops. Check Framing NOTE: Because of the weight of the hood make sure that the mounting screws are driven into the framing and not just the drywall. It may be necessary to drill additional holes in the canopy for proper alignment.
