SIZING THE FIREPLACE HOOD TO THE FIREPLACE
OPENING OR GLASS DOOR FRAME
The replace hood assembly is adjustable from 28 to 48
in. You must open hood assembly wide enough to cover
the entire replace opening. You can open hood wider if
desired. For best appearance, make sure center section of
hood assembly is centered with the replace opening.
Follow the instructions below to properly size the
replace hood assembly.
1. Measure width of replace opening or glass door frame
(see Measurement ”A”, Fig. 1). Use work space below
to gure proper size for replace hood.
Measurement ”A”_____________________________
Subtract 24 in.
(width or hood center section)___________________
Subtotal =___________________________________
Divided by 2_________________________________
Measurement ”B”=____________________________
Measurement ”B” is the distance from the outside edges
of center-hood assembly section to outside edges of
adjustable outer-hood assembly sections (see Fig. 2).
When adjustable outer sections are extended to this
measurement, hood assembly will be correct size. The
overall width of the hood assembly will equal the width of
the replace opening. If you have glass doors and would
like the hood assembly to hang beyond the edge of the door
frame, add 1/2 in. to measurement “B”. Make sure that hood
provides room for opening doors.
