FIGURE 1
DUE TO THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THIS RANGE-
HOOD, THE SUPPORT MUST BE FIRMLY AT-
TACHED TO THE CEILING. For plaster or sheet rock
ceilings, the support must be attached to the joists. If
this is not possible, a support structure must be built
behind the plaster or sheet rock. The manufacturer
assumes no responsibility for injury or damage caused
by improper installations.
ATTACHING THE CHIMNEY
The rangehood attaches to the ceiling by a support inside the
chimney(T) as illustated in FIGURE 1. This support must be
attached to the ceiling before the canopy is attached to this
support. Since this structure supports the weight of the canopy,
it must be firmly attached to the ceiling. FOR CONCRETE
CEILINGS - Use inserts and screws provided. FOR WOOD
CEILINGS - Use four 4" long wood screws. FOR PLASTER
OR SHEET ROCK CEILINGS - If possible, the support must
be attached to the ceiling joists. If not, a supporting structure
behind the sheet rock must be built.
PLAN THE INSTALLATION
The standard installation for this rangehood is ducted to the
outside of the house. This rangehood can also be installed as
ductless which requires a ductless kit from the dealer which
consists of: lower chimney cover with vent holes, vent grates,
ductless diverter and two charcoal filters. If desired, this
rangehood can use an optional 900 CFM remote blower. If the
remote blower is used, the internal blower must be removed
and discarded. Both blowers cannot be used together. The
remote blower connects using a separate wiring cable not
supplied with the unit and should be installed at the same
time as the ductwork.
The Isola chimney is adjustable for varying ceiling heights
between 8 and 9 feet. This is accomplished by using more
or less of the upper chimney cover. FIGURE 2 illustrates the
dimensions of each piece of the Isola.
FIGURE 2
CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if ducted with 3 1/4" by
10" rectangular duct and 60 equivalent feet if ducted with 9"
round ductwork. Calculate the length of the ductwork by adding
the equivalent feet in FIGURE 3 for each piece of duct in the
system An example is given in FIGURE 4. For best results,
use no more than three 90° elbows. Make sure that there is a
minimum of 24" of straight duct between elbows if more than one
is used. Do not install two elbows together. Remote blowers
require 9" round duct.
