• This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structure and support
must be provided in all types of installations.
• At the hood location, install 2"x 4" cross framing between
ceiling joists as shown (2"x 4" are required to support
the weight of the hood).
• Arrange cross framing in the ceiling to suit the existing
structure.
