INSTALLATION GUIDE
Rangehood Fans
MODEL OD-22014
Ductless
In ductless installation, air is vented back into the kitchen
through the opening in the rangehood grille. If you do not
anticipate heavy cooking, this method may be preferable.
Ductless installation requires the use of charcoal filters
(included) to remove odours, which should be replaced at
regular intervals depending on use. Check with your local
retailer or dealer for replacements.
* This filter is not dishwasher safe!
Horizontal Discharge
If the range is located against an outside wall, then horizontal
discharging is ideal, provided there are no obstructions such as
wall joists or places where openings are difficult to make.
If a wall cap is used directly off the back of the hood, special
care must be taken to ensure that the damper in the damper/
duct connector on the hood and the damper in the wall cap do
not interfere with each other when the rangehood is operating.
This could result in either inadequate air delivery or back drafts.
If this condition exists, remove the hood damper flap.
Sometimes when using a wall cap, it is easier to duct vertically
and then to use an elbow.
For model OD-22014, you must
remove the vent cover from the slots on the front of the
rangehood. Save the vent cover for possible future use.
Preparation of Electrical Connections
If replacing an existing hood, the electrical cable may need to
be rerouted to the desired position.
1. Determine the location of the electrical cable to connect to
the rangehood
2. Remove the electrical knockout on the back or top of the
rangehood and install a standard electrical cable clamp
3. Transfer the location of the rangehood electrical knockout
to either the bottom of the cabinet or the wall. Drill or cut a
hole in the adjoining surface to make room for the
electrical cable clamp
Cabinet Preparation for Hood Support
Mount the hood so that the bottom of the hood is between
24"-30" above the stove top. WHEN CUTTING OR DRILLING INTO
WALL OR CABINET, BE CAREFUL NOT TO CUT EXISTING
ELECTRICAL WIRING.
1. If the bottom of the cabinet is recessed above the bottom
of the cabinet door, then it is necessary to install wood
strips on each side of the recessed area on the bottom of
the cabinet where the rangehood will be mounted. The
wood strips should line up with the 4 keyhole slots ono the
top of the rangehood. Fasten the wood strips with wood
screws about 3" in from each end. * The thickness of the
wood strips should be slightly more than the recessed
dimension. The length should be cut to size.
2. Measure and mark the electrical wiring opening in the wall
or the cabinet. If the hood is to be vented, also mark and
measure the duct opening in the wall or cabinet.

Preparation for Duct Connection
1. Remove the appropriate ducting knockout by inserting a
screw driver under one end and prying it up. Then snip or
break the attachment points (see Fig.1 on the right)
2. Install the damper assembly to the rangehood with the 2
screws supplied
3. If discharge is vertical through a rectangular duct, remove
the knockout sections D, B and E only (see Fig.2)
4. If the vertical discharge is through a 7" round duct, remove
knockout sections A, B and C only. Section D and E remain
with the hood (see Fig.2 on the right)
5. Mount the round collar (E22A-not supplied) over the
opening on the hood by using 3 shorter screws. Allow the
bottom edge of the 7" duct to be inserted into the collar
