Installation Notes
Mount the hood 32 to 36 in. above the cooking surface, and when it sits above 32 in., make it at least 6 in. wider than the grill; check your grill's own overhead clearance too. Summerset recommends venting straight up through the roof with rigid metal or aluminum 8 in. duct, no more than three 90 degree elbows, at least 24 in. of straight run between elbows, and never terminating in an attic. Secure the hood to studs, or add toggle bolts if only one stud is available. In New York City, a hood on a terrace or rooftop usually means new duct penetrations and electrical work, so building approval and a licensed electrician are part of the plan. Book a design consultation and we will size the hood, duct run and grill together.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size grill does a 42 in. hood cover?
Summerset says a hood mounted more than 32 in. above the grill should be at least 6 in. wider than the grill, so up to a 36 in. grill at that height.
How high should it hang?
32 to 36 in. above the cooking surface, also checking the grill maker's overhead clearance.
Can it vent through a wall?
Yes. It can vent from the top or the rear, though Summerset recommends a vertical roof run where possible.
How do I clean the filters?
The baffle filters lift out and go in the dishwasher; Summerset suggests cleaning them at least twice a month.
