We have bought Fisher-Paykel range hood (HC30DTX1). The hood has 2 slotted holes at the top of exhaust motor compartment. However, installation template shows 4 additional holes in the wall at the valance area, however there are no corresponding holes in the hood. If anybody has experience with this type of hood, how many screws suppose to hold this hood? User guide says that 15/64" holes are required and there are 10 wall anchors are provided (4 for decorative chimney), but it looks like the installation guide doesn't match the hood.
Another question. The 6" vent on top of the hood is positioned 1/2" from the wall. If I install 90 degrees 6" elbow to the wall vent. the offset is almost 3". Is it possible to us a semi-rigid pipe to connect the hood to the elbow? I need only around 1 foot, because the range hood has to be mounted 30" above the gas stove and this puts the hood quite close to the wall vent.
Thank you in advance!
