cooking surface, a minimum of 27" (68.6 cm) for a gas cooking surface, and a
suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm) above the range to the bottom of the
hood. Mark a reference line on the wall.
3. Place the vent hood on the wall, adjust to align and fasten with screws and screw
anchors suited to the wall type (reinforced concrete, plasterboard etc.)
