We are manufacturor in China. It was good for us to see how customer install the range hood. It will help us to find a better way to improve our range hoods.
Thanks so much! The key to the whole install for me was the bracket idea in the first few minutes....very helpful idea, I can figure out the rest....Thanks! :)
Thank you very much indeed for placing this extremely good video. The make of hood I'm needing to fit (replacing an existing Island hood of a different make) is Falmec, an extrely well built and heavy hood. There seem though, to be large similarities with the hood which you are fitting in this video.
You were very lucky. Firstly that there was no habitable area above with a floor. Had this been the case the supporting trimmers could not have been fitted between the joists as shown. Secondly that you did not need to fit the rest of the ducting system - presumably it was already in place. Thirdly that there was some wiring in place and fourthly that the decorative stainless steel cladding was in two parts so it could be added at the end. AEG island hoods have the stainless steel cladding in one piece (a nightmare) so you have to put it in place and temporarily support it in the air (with sticky tape) while you do the rest of the installation.
great video ! How can I find the correct location for installation? Is the center of the island hood aligned with the center of the stove? Thanks so much.
great video ! How can I find the correct location for installation? Is the centre of the island range hood aligned with the centre of the 4 furnaces?Thanks so much.
Very nice video with tons of secret tips. Especially the tip on using cardboard. I have a different issue. My ceiling is canted about 30 degree slope. Any tips on establishing the base on a sloped ceiling?
Great video. I thought codes require rigid steel duct for cooking and heat applications? I am getting condensation on interior of hood metal. It is single wall and the A/C space is cooling the duct exterior. There is warm air in the duct interior but I have a damper at the roof cap. I am re-insulating the unvented roof soffet box at the roof decking with closed cell foam. I hope this helps. If not, I would add a tight backdraft damper at the base of the unvented box to stop air leakage. Then I am out of ideas. Could it be thermal bridging? It is a 6.5 ft x 8 in vertical stack of ducting. The last 21 inches are through an unvented soffet box. If I can use flexiduct as a transition, it would be easier to add a Backdraft damper.
Doesn't the flexible duct violate the International Residential Code? 2018 IRC, Paragraph M1503.3 Exhaust discharge "Domestic cooking exhauste equipment shall discharge to the outdoors through a duct. The duct shall have a smooth interior surface," etc. The flexible duct does not have a smooth interior surface and is a great place to trap grease.
This video is for 1 story house. If the bedrooms are on the 2nd story, mounting supports are critical I bought 1 Xtremeair Pro I36, and still try to find out how to install it on my 1st floor. Xtremair Range Hood is made in USA
0:10 You'll have to go into the attic, especially for a new installation. Unless: a) Your hood range is battery operated and, b) It's going to vent into the attic and not the roof. 🤷🏽♂️
You need venting ducts within your floor cavity leading to the outside. This usually involves a lot of work since you have to rip out drywall to install a duct. Good luck with that.
Nice video however the ducting you are showcasing is illegal to use for this purpose. If the unsuspecting public were to follow your instructional video to the letter they will not only be violating code, they might also suffer potentially devastating results. This is according to the International Residential Code M1503 Range Hoods. I was in an appliance store yesterday where they were using your video to explain to a customer how to install their island hood. I took it upon myself to correct the video in their presence.
Xtremeairusa is not made in USA. Their homepage stated that - designed, Engineered , assembly in The USA. They ordered the hood from China and pack in USA only.
+Simon Ip I bought one from them. My interpretation: Designed, Engineered , assembly in The USA = Parts was manufactured in China in according with US Designing and Engineering.
@@SP-qo1so the entire weight of the unit is being supported by the 1x4 material on top of the 2x4. Worse, it's laid on the flat (narrow) side, which offers the least amount of resistance to deflection. The 2x4 is acting only like a spacer, and offers no support for the load. Basically, you will come home one day to find the entire thing in pieces all over your kitchen floor. Guaranteed!
This is ridiculous!!! Why the hell did you remove the white plastic shield!!! The plastic is left on and taken off by the customer!!! The owner!!! Not you!!! Especially before installation!!!
I can see right from the start you don't like to measure. So how are you going to vent to the outdoors? So by 3minutes and 38 seconds into the video you have skipped the entire major part of the installation. This video is completely useless.

you make that look easy, nice video.

Thank you so much, your video was excellent job.
Hi. Great video. Have a question how I can do if my cealing is inclined ? Thank you
Nice video with great tip about using T shape supports for ceiling bracket.
Thank you. This came in very handy today.
How do you take off the metal outer sleeves in order to disassemble the vent?

yes flexible duct is a no-no, particularly if it is going to be buried in a wall etc etc
Perfect demonstration good job !
hello how can i do this on an angled or slop ceiling please
So you didn't go up to the attic. Where is this venting? Surely not into the attic?
It was already ducted before. He was just replacing with a newer model im sure.

A little product placement ad for Thermador cooktops at 4:13?
This video is for 1 story house.
If the bedrooms are on the 2nd story, mounting supports are critical
I bought 1 Xtremeair Pro I36, and still try to find out how to install it on my 1st floor.
Xtremair Range Hood is made in USA
Tuyen Tra tie it into the joists which means opening up the drywall then run the pipe between the joists and out
You can try getting one that is also DUCTLESS
DallasCityOfChampions
What if the center of your range hood comes right up through a joist?
Very useful. Thanks for the great video.
Muchas gracias muy bien explicado
BRAVO BRAVO TO THE POINT AND JOB WELL DONE
0:10 You'll have to go into the attic, especially for a new installation. Unless: a) Your hood range is battery operated and,
b) It's going to vent into the attic and not the roof. 🤷🏽♂️
Yeah... This guy is a salesman, not an installer.
Very helpful. Thank you sir
Is that an angled roof?
this video is not included the venting. so sorry
any videos / idea on how install in a slope ceiling ????
Now you're thinking outside the box.
DallasCityOfChampions
Awesome video. Thanks
.
Purchase extreme air 5years , can't get replacement parts control panel
How to loosing or separate the last panel mine won’t
How many amps is required??
Thanks, Nice and clear demonstration. Good job.
Good work
Can we install Wall mount range hood to Island, My basic question is if all wall mount range hood comes covered from all 4 sides?
@m abear thanks
Does it rattle?
thank you excelent video....
I bought the island one. The material is stainless steel, very strong and you can't even screw or cut so you CAN'T scratch it :)
Great video! Very informative.
What do you do when you have a second floor and then an attic above It?
You need venting ducts within your floor cavity leading to the outside. This usually involves a lot of work since you have to rip out drywall to install a duct. Good luck with that.
I wish this guy was my dad.
Good sir ji im india
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The best video
Does the Hood have a electrical plug to connect to an outlet?
Silamanino
Most do come with a electrical plug, some are also hardwire.
DallasCityOfChampions
What size of duct goes from hood through attic to vent in roof?
If the hood is under 36" most would need at least a 6" duct, anything bigger than a 36" hood would require a 8" duct or bigger.
DallasCityOfChampions
It depends on the CFM of the vent fan
this is great!
I do with myself thanks for the video
Looks good, come install mine
The flex ducting does not meet Codes
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
where can i get a jack to install by myself
You can find a friend or a long lost relative nameed, Jack.

What if there's a return duct bulkhead right above the stovetop?
Somebody had to go into the dusty attic.
You need to attach the support lumber to the joists. Do not do what this man did
Why? What is the harm in doing it this way?
Shane Peterson common sense. It needs to be completely secured to the joists vs. relying on the units weight to keep it from moving.
Experts 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
