   Installing the Enclosure Panels (Wrappers) On Canopy-Type Hoods    

  1. Unwrap the wrapper panels from the shipping container.
  2. Locate "L" brackets if supplied. Position and fasten brackets parallel to corner of hood on the wall. Brackets should be offset at least 1/16" in from edge of hood in order for wrapper face to mount flush with the hood (Fig. 1,2)
  3. Locate one of the side wrapper panels and position it on the hood so that the 3/8" flange on the bottom of panel slips underneath the C-channel on top of the hood. (Fig. 1)
Note: A notch will have to be cut on the wrapper flange using shears (tin snips) where interference occurs. (Fig. 3)
  1. Press fit panel into place until wrapper face is flush with hood face. Screw or pop-rivet wrapper to the C-channel and "L" bracket. (Fig. 1)
  2. Locate front wrapper panel. Position its' lower 3/8" flange under C-channel of hood and slide panel into position so that the end of front panel is behind the 90 degree bend of side panel. (Fig. 4) Once into place, press fit the lower flange of the front panel into C-channel in order to have wrapper face flush with front of hood. Screw or pop-rivet bottom of front panel to the C-channel.
  3. Drill appropriate holes and rivet front to end panel. (Fig. 5)
  4. If multiple panels are used (i.e. hood is side to side or back to back to another), a stainless trim will be provided to attach multiple panels together. Attach the panels by slipping them behind the stainless trim and fastening with screws or rivets. (Fig. 5)
Note: Trim length will have to be cut to fit. In most instances, trim should extend from bottom of hood to top of wrapper panel. (Fig. 6)

  1. Locate the other side panel. Repeat steps 2,3,4. Pop rivet as previously done in step 5. Note: In most instances where hood is located against a side wall, fasten the front wrapper panel to the "L" bracket. A second side panel will not be shipped. Pop rivet or screw front wrapper panel to bracket. (Fig. 7)
  2. Caulk all gaps and seams.
