If you have already done the repair, you will have to mount the outer outlet and hide the wire into the plastic box.

After that, you need to scout special supports or frames for fastening the drawing. It is worth remembering that the device should be installed strictly horizontally, to do this, use the level. Mark the places for the holes with a pencil and drill holes. Drink plastic struts into the holes and screw the fasteners with a dowel. Now hang hood.

Before purchasing an exhaust, you should call workers in the service that is engaged in ventilation. You can independently check the passability of air ducts. To do this, remove the grille and burn the match, the flame should be delayed into the tunnel. If this does not happen, you will have to pierce the air duct from the leaves or the construction trash.

After the extraction is purchased and the performance of air ducts is checked, it is necessary to buy a special pipe. It can be corrugated or tube from galvanized. The easiest way to buy corrugations, as there is no need to customize the joints, it is enough just to squeeze the pipe. It is necessary that the pipe diameter coincides with the hole diameter in the hood. Put the corrugation on the tap hole and secure it with a clamp. Remove the grid from the hole in the wall and secure the special plastic adapter. On the convex ring, put on the second edge of the corrugation and secure the clamp.

If you attach the device closer to the stove, it will be very hot, which will lead to its breakdown.

It is necessary that the exhaust width is completely coincided with the size of the cabinet. Remove the bottom from the box, and in the upper part of it, make a hole, the diameter of which should be equal to the size of the pipe. Screw fasteners to the closet and install the bottom of the hood. Remove the pipe and attach it after installing the bottom panel. In addition to the hole on the locker, insert the corrugation and secure its edges with the help of clamps. You can now connect the device to the network and check its performance.
