3. PREPARE CUSTOM HOOD

WARNING

• When building a custom hood, always follow all applicable construction codes and standards.

• Make sure the cabinet is capable of supporting its own weight and the weight of the power pack. Failure to do

so may cause personal injury or damage to countertop or cooktop.

The custom hood must be constructed to fit the size and shape of the power pack.

Proper structural support is required to accommodate the weight of the hood.

Start with the custom hood base, because its position will determine the height of the

power pack. We recommend the base of the custom hood should be 3/4-inch thick

plywood. If an optional custom hood liner will be installed, we recommend the sides

and front of the custom hood to be 3/4-inch thick, assuming standard cabinet width .

If the optional custom hood liner will not be installed, the custom hood side and front

thickness is at the installer’s discretion.

Run power cable to installation location. Stub out a 4-foot length of electrical cable

below the custom hood.

4. INSTALL CUSTOM HOOD LINER (OPTIONAL)

The liners are especially designed to protect the exterior base of the custom hood. Refer to the table below to find the right liner model number

for your power pack and custom hood width. To view specifications, including depth for each liner model, visit www.BestRangeHoods.com

or contact Technical support (phone number listed on page 13, in warranty text).

To install, see instructions packed with custom hood liner. The liner must be installed before the power pack.

NOTE: On some liner models, the front liner piece may overlap the power pack front flange. If so, remove the front liner piece, assemble

power pack, and reassemble the front liner piece.
